Some clone and bounce effects might give you some versatility. I'm thinking stuff like Clone Legion, Baral's Expertise, Supplant Form, and Rite of Replication.

Sigil Tracer is a maybe - you have 14 other Wizards in the deck and a few spells worth cloning, but it's really handy counterspell protection at times because you can copy someone else's counterspell and counter it with the copy.

I actually thought of a few more cuts that I don't think require any reimagining of what the deck could/should be doing. No major shakeup or anything.

1. Nim Deathmantle You know I don't like this card, but despite my personal preference I really don't think it belongs here. I know you want to protect your commander, and I know you want to play equipment that add to his power, and I know you can more easily keep 4 mana open in a reactive spellslinger blue deck like this. That said, Neither Trinket Mage nor Trophy Mage can fetch it, and your commander builds up counters and the deathmantle will make them fall off. If you were to stick with a 2 mana equipment I prefer Ring of Evos Isle which will boost your commander over time and can equip and keep the hexproof open for cheaper than the deathmantle. I also like Runechanter's Pike as a cheap way to get potentially lorge. And for a 3 mana artifact you can tutor, Champion's Helm seems like an ideal replacement.
2. Fall of the Titans When you haven't gone infinite Fall asks A LOT for the benefit of being an instant. And if you have gone infinite, it only has 2 targets so it might not get you there. Jaya's Immolating Inferno has 3 targets so actually finishes the game if you go infinite, and if your commander has like 5 counters on it will deal a lot more damage. Drown in Dreams is another good one if you go big and game winner if you go infinite, just because you can draw 50 cards, mill one player 100 cards, and finish the other two off with another card you just drew.
3. Supplant Form is neat but a single bounce likely doesn't slow your opponent down much, their creature probably isn't that good in your deck, and the bookkeeping thing again with making a token copy of someone else's creature is always annoying irl. So how about another spell that just keeps the engine running smoothly? Vedalken Orrery like the Leyline I recommended before frees you up generally but also helps facilitate day/night switching, but is pretty expensive. If that's an issue, Zaffai, Thunder Conductor is another fun card you could be playing who gets you scry bonuses all the time, Elementals for pretty big spells, and throws around 10 damage for the really big ones!
4. Bonders' Enclave I just don't see this triggering reliably. Like it is bad when you are losing, when your commander is small or dead, which could be half the game! Mikokoro, Center of the Sea is like my favorite land, is cheaper to activate, can be done under any circumstances, and you can use it as a political tool to garner goodwill! Alternatively given that your commander loves +1/+1 counters Opal Palace seems like a no brainer and should actually go in here even if you have to cut a Mountain.

Nightmare Shepherd is one of the best as it adds a lot of functionality with no upfront cost and allows you to exploit sacrifice mechanics like evoke. Creating token clones with etb/ltb can easily become overpowered, especially when combined with populate. In fact I built a great ETB Roon EDH deck around it using cards like Yosei, the Morning Star, Protean Hulk and Wayfaring Temples that clone themselves. Token clone generation is amazing because it's essentially ETB blinking as a side effect. You have some cards that do it already listed under abuse but I think the mechanic is good enough and has enough viable cards that it might be worth making a new category for it.

Also some other blink type cards:

Blink-Yorion, Sky Nomad Conditional bounce- Cunning Evasion ETB clone- Wall of Stolen Identity Graveyard blink- Cauldron of Souls, Twilight Shepherd, Adarkar Valkyrie ETB Abuse- Jalira, Master Polymorphist, Proteus Staff, Master Transmuter. Listing the ones that specifically clone or blink artifacts in their own group might be helpful too.

Sublime Epiphany (maybe? Unless SBA stops it) and Supplant Form could allow for use of Grandeur effects in commander. There's also copy + reanimation to hand effects Phyrexian Reclamation.
