What should the technical correct middle gray IRE value be on the waveform for Rec709?
The best IRE value to set for the middle gray card of the Vello White Balance Card Set (Medium) (B&H# VEWBCMII) will vary by your camera and chosen camera settings. As such, you will want to try out the settings until you find the one that works best for your needs. However, many people prefer to shoot around 40 when using a log format and a bit below 50 when shooting with linear exposure.

If I'm looking for consistent color in narrative ...
If I'm looking for consistent color in narrative film across different shotcomps, does it make more sense to aim my camera at a WB card and set the WB in-camera (which will change the Kelvin temperature each time for each setup), or, would it be better for consistency across multiple shots/lighting setups, to set the WB to the color temp of the lights I'm using (5600K, daylight) for the in-camera WB, and then set the WB in post, by using the WB eyedropper, clicking on the same gray card recorded in frame, used w/ different lighting setups?
The standard for video and white balance is to set the camera using a custom white balance from the Vello White Balance Card Set (Large). That is if the camera allows a custom white balance.
