every connection is a failure point that could loose or degrade a signal.

pass-through is better though less convenient.

Yep. Pros use pass-throughs unless the customer’s needs dictate otherwise.

An earlier plan for this jack I’m playing with was to put it in a plate and have another at the other side of the wall to plug through to.

Why would that not be a better and more stable solution than a scoop?

Is the scoop a fitting for an electrical box or just another hole in the wall?

Just curious.

Generally just a hole in the wall.
