Does this mean that if I leave my account to have a single bitcoin payout address and change to solo, you will then credit all the coins I solo mined (without the "Lost" and "Orphan") to my BTC address? I saw in the documentation that payout proportions are ignored which infers no entry of separate address per coin type.
If you don't have a payout address for a coin, then you won't get paid out. The coins will just accumulate in your account.
Make sure that you add a payout address for that coin before you start, even if you set the payout proportion for the coin to zero.

I wanted to confirm I understand how we mine when we have both PPS and solo miners in the same account.
Workers with m=solo and c=bitcoin will mine the most profitable coin and ignore the payout portions and accumulate in their respective payout addresses, waiting to hit the payout threshold for each coin before sending to each individual address.
PPS workers (no "m=" set) will continue to behave as normal and payouts will be split along the percentages outlined by each coin.

Yes. The PPS miners continue to function as they normally do now, with earnings being credited to the defined proportions. Solo miners earn 100% in the solo-mined coin, or merge mining rewards only if they don't find any blocks.
