Have the StreetDecks at Green Lane also had this done? I saw one on the 18 last week displaying route information, which I've not seen before.

When new, they only had announcements for the 10B and 14 as that is what they're mostly allocated to.

4630 was seen on a school variation of the 60 at around 16:00, I am aware of the 10S, but how long has the 60S existed as a route? I cannot find anything about a 60S route.

I think it's only a recent addition (maybe this week). There was some negative commentary in The Liverpool Echo recently about overcrowded and missing buses on the 60 so this is an attempt to alleviate that.

Little early to call but do we know when the batch of Evoras are due to arrive at Bootle including (reportedly) the batch of Evoras from Luton?

I don't think Bootle is getting any E200MMC's (St Helens is getting some from Luton though), Bootle just getting Evora's, some from Luton and a few new ones...

Yep, that's a fault on my part, corrected.
