My trek has gone from Methodist to Lutheran, but if I were to take the next step, why should I stop at Rome? Why not revert all the way and become Orthodox?

What makes Orthodox all the way back? The Catholic Church came first, and the Orthodox split off.

Orthodox split from the Catholic Church. Your next step after that would be to become Catholic.

My trek has gone from Methodist to Lutheran, but if I were to take the next step, why should I stop at Rome? Why not revert all the way and become Orthodox? The Orthodox split with Rome close to a thousand years ago over several novelties that are troublesome to this day, for them and for Protestants as well. So, if it's liturgical grandeur with authentic antiquity they're after, that would be a far better fit. And, more true to the primitive church.
