I am investigating options that would allow Workfront to remain the single source of truth and intake point but allow users to use their preferred tools for day-to-day task m...

The start/finish/duration is controlled entirely by the child tasks (earliest starting child task = parent start. latest ending child task = parent end). In other words, leave the parent tasks be.

This is not quite what you asked (duration) but you may be able to modify and split the calculation into separate fields to get what you need. It required two custom fields.  1 DE:Current Status IF(...
