To be fair to Strike, this was EVENTUALLY resolved after a frustratingly long wait from their support team following my ticket; so long as KYC laws still exist, lots of services that would otherwise be frictionless will suck ass in this regard by necessity.

Better than Bitwage's bullshit with switching from bank to bank just as you've changed direct deposit information to a bank they said would be your region's operating one days before, Strike has just the ONE (for now).
