I also tried to replace
"/Applications/Tor Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Tor/PluggableTransports/lyrebird"
with the path to the lyrebird executable from the Tor Expert Bundle instead:
/Users/jsx97/Downloads/tor-expert-bundle-macos-aarch64-14.0.4/tor/pluggable_transports/lyrebird
And it turns out it behaves somewhat differently.
It connects to 100%, though the blocked websites are nevertheless still blocked.
