There are also chorus projects that use pt2399. Idk if @PedalPCB offers any, but last year I built the Madbean florist and I liked it, but I'm not a chorus guy honestly

I don't have a PT2399 chorus right now. I actually didn't think those were all that great so I've avoided them.... maybe I'm wrong? 
I'd definitely recommend the Caesar if Cabintech has the BBDs in stock.
I'm not really blown away by FV-1 modulation unless it's some sort of complex special effect... Chorus, phase, and flange should be left to analog circuits in my opinion. The Unison, however, is a pretty cool chorus-like effect without the LFO sweep, but probably not what your friend is looking for if he asked for a chorus.

I’ve been able to get a few chorus type sounds out of the rainbow machineI don't have a PT2399 chorus right now. I actually didn't think those were all that great so I've avoided them.... maybe I'm wrong?

Have you built a ce-2? If you didn’t dig that, I don’t think the extra knob and switch will really ‘wow’ you.

You don't like chorus and you don't like delays, what is your thing?
I'll admit, I'm not a huge chorus user (unless I'm playing clean, which I rarely do) and BBD delays really don't blow me away.
Just copy the available source code from the internal fv-1 patch that the rainbow machine uses?
I think the one patch on the unison double tracker basically does this (detuned chorus without warble). Maybe not quite as warm as an analog chorus but I find it to be a nice effect which can be subtle

I think I’m in the minority, but chorus is my favorite mod.

I like amp distortion, tape effects, fuzz, or blown out and ragged soundsYou don't like chorus and you don't like delays, what is your thing?

Have you tried the Neil Young mod, i.e., pushing your rig out of a moving vehicle?

I admitted haven’t looked at it at all, but I thought I had seen it mentioned that the pitch pirate was a chorus
