Appreciate you chiming in! I don't own any of the ones you mention, and fully take the word of Jussi, others and yourself on these implementations. Could there be an error in the AK4191 datasheet? According to tables 14 and 15, the AK4191 supports DSD512 and DSD1024 streams, so 22/45 MHz DCLK even when the base MCLK is 11 MHz! And according to table 24, DSDD ("DSD direct") can be set up to and including DSD512. Either this must be in error, or by using a PLL. In any case, I agree with you, it's a misnomer to call it "direct".
Some more information about the topic: Jussi's standing is that datasheet information is incorrect:
