There’s already a container for audiobooks - m4b

Mka is excellent because you can add all the chapters and everything to the file and nothing needs to be re-encoded.

True. My original intention, before discovering how common wonky mp3 audiobooks were, was to use the MKA container (I guess MKA is audio MKV?) to simply preserve the original audio data streams without reëncoding. However, since my script converts to WAV then reëncodes to 48kbps OPUS, I probably should have FFMPEG use M4B as the final output container for clarity.
