Any ideas why this outdated standard chinese frame is 850usd? The color schemes are interesting, but what else?

I ordered a frame, ...
That's screwed indeed.
But why didn't you open a dispute? The seller doesn't provide you with after-sell support/warranty and ghosting you, so you have nothing to lose already. You could request a refund for the wrong color and defective BB thread. Now since you mentioned that you already got extra damage from home service, it probably could be a bit more challenging to state your point but still doable for a color refund at least.

Another update from another store on aliexpress. FINTOWON BIKE this time with Winow frames. They have a similar to M030 (and M048) frame which is MF699. The guy told me that it was originally meant to be with a 52mm chain line and a max 36T chainring without magic.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it just the m030 model with T47 bottom bracket and 52/52mm headset + fancy-shmancy clean look stealth cable routing? Speaking of which, the original m030 was designed for a 52mm chainline and can only fit 34T (or you optionally go to 55mm adjustment and 38T with all that entails), based on the info I got from Spcycle Store on aliexpress.

Gosh, it’s quite a tight fit in here. I appreciate your help and photos.
From what I can see, I'd speculate that even the 6th cog results in a slightly shifted chain toward the center line at the cassette's side; but I'd gladly hear other opinions. Indeed, I can't understand how this frame is supposed to accommodate 40T even with a 0mm offset.
Let's see what other users can say on this matter. Perhaps mr. Snife might have something to share.

Like other gentlemen noticed the confusing 55mm chainline specified by SP-Cycle, I also wonder what a gloomy Chinese genius created here. So, you're using a standard boost crankset with a 3mm chainring which doing just fine. But I'm particularly interested in how the chain is aligned now with respect to the cassette (somewhere in the middle, let's say 6-7th cog) and chainring. Is it somewhat parallel and straight? And what about backpedaling on the biggest cog of the cassette? Any issues with the falling chain?
I'm trying to understand if the frame was designed at all to be 55mm chainlinish or if it's just another marketing crap about fitting a 40T ring but with mad offset (0mm something).

An example, 38T, 70/73.5°:

There're also a few modern frames on aliexpress that can handle 38T or even 40T chainring.

Congratulation, you have just invented an old XC frame. Don't forget about new fancy boost hubs for gravels (which are not a joke anymore).

Gentlemen, could anyone measure the front/rear clearance with your tyres, please? I wonder how thick I can go. And if there is a room for fenders.

One story is a trendy-brandy bikes with clean look and absolutely another when you have the same features in chinabike. For instance: sharp edges which will cut little by little you hydroline inside your fancy headset. Btw, any insulation from the mud and water flying around in nasty weather?

Do you think 38T chainring would fit?

I consider something similar as well, but with dropbars (hello chinese "Surly Corner"). The problem for me at least is a chainring around 40T. So far I have found two frames from Lexon with somewhat modern geo:
1) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003476882567.html
2) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004907721458.html
But after chatting with them a bit I got a feeling that either they were retarded or just toying with me. From what I found here, people basically got similar experience. So, there's another version of №2 from Winow:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004579692520.html
A guy told me that it fits 38T just fine, chainline is 52 mm.
As for rigid forks, a few options again:
1) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003771260988.html
2) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004222398248.html
You can see it's 490-497 mm. Assuming all frames are for 100mm forks by default with standard 506 mm length you can try this guy also to keep the geo almost the same:
