It seems that you almost did all possible ways to restore your original wallet.
And you also tried to recover the deleted wallet file on the MacBook, but you didn't mention what tool you used?
Would you mind telling us what tool you used to recover the wallet file?

I'd like to suggest you try Disk Drill to scan the whole drive, and let's see if it could find "default_wallet."

If it doesn't work, then your last hope is to know what you did to your seed phrase before making any copy.
I am thinking maybe you did scramble a few phrase? Or maybe you change the last part of your seed phrase?

If yes then try to brute force it using The finderOuter check the link below
