I'd still like to know how high it needs to be to work reliably without hard-coding the baud.

Yes, I'd appreciate that testing.

I think that's because there's a longer delay since that sets the 57600 baud a little bit earlier.

There are four variants that all mean the very same thing:

   serial:ttyACM0, serial:/dev/ttyACM0, ttyACM0, /dev/ttyACM0

This is all for backward compatibility to when brltty only supported serial communication, i.e. the /dev/ absolute path prefix is optional and the serial: communiction method is optional. The correct syntax is serial:ttyACM0.

You asked earlier (but I forgot to quote it) if you can specify the baud parameter in brltty.conf - yes, you can. For example:

   braille-device serial:ttyACM0+baud=57600

Since the delay seems to need to be so high, I think I'll probably add another serial device parameter for that.
