Questions for folks with TRP Hylex, is the brake line they come with the same size as for Shimano hydraulics? Ie: could one swap out the caliper for a Shimano one to get access to finned pads etc?

Yes it is possible:

Ive got a hylex lever (thanks to @Soul) and swapped out the caliper with a shimano xtr. The hylex brake uses standard fittings and both calipers have about the same size piston so equal power as well. It works!

(...and I save 30 grams in disc brake adapters!...)
