Core XY movement issues

@dc42 @ everyone
Thank You Dave!!! You made me find the problem. By going in fresh this am and starting to do the test, I discovered that in my original config.g file posted here, the original M92 statement was incorrect, it read "M92 Y320 Y320 Z1400 E420 ". I guess my mind corrected it every time I looked at it. Your #4 test was what made me catch it. So I have corrected it and all seems to be correct. I ran the test with the bad M92 statement and got this
9:43:05 AM
M92
Steps/mm: X: 349.956, Y: 320.000, Z: 1400.000, E: 420.000:420.000:420.000:420.000:420.000:420.000:420.000:420.000:420.000

I can't really comment on the inner workings, but it shows me that the two motors were not in sync. So my problem is solved and the mystery of why is now as well.
I apologize for all of the time and effort that was put in to finding my stupid mistake and thank everyone for their time and effort.

I'm glad we got to the bottom of it. The default XY steps/mm is 87.4890 (a hangover from the first printer to use a Duet), which explains how you got the 349.965 steps/mm after changing the microstepping.

@fxxtoo What the heck, I checked your config files multiple times to find something and overlooked it also.
Glad that you found the solution now!

@dc42 Amen to that!!!!

Yes.. I can't begin to tell you how many times that I looked at it and missed it.. And I wear glasses!

If it's any consolation, I too didn't spot it (and I wear glasses too).
But I'm glad you got it sorted because I was starting to doubt my own sanity.

@deckingman Thanks, sometimes to close to the forest to see the trees!

@fxxtoo We should have gone to spec savers maybe

Thanks for sticking with it while we have been throwing ideas at you, as @JoergS5 says.. you now know how it all works very well!

Thanks for the kind words, but I have just started the learning curve.
