Am I right to think if I want to do this incrementally, instead of buying a new crankset ..
1. Install a Roadlink + chain length .. which should increase ability to handle up to 32T cassette
2. Install a Roadlink + modify to Medium cage + chain length .. which should increase it to support 36T ?

Agree with Spud. 32 likely works even without the Roadlink. I needed one with EPS because it lacks a b screw, and the upper jockey interfered with the 32. Chain length needs to be spot on, and it'll still exceed der capacity so likely either the big/big or small/small are unusable. I opted for the later as it won't rip the derailleur off if you hit it accidentally, and I rarely use the that end of the cassette in the 34.
The 36? Might be a reach even with a medium cage, but no experience there.
