First of all, /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service is not a file, but a symbolic link. I don't know exactly what you mean by "neither of which would boot correctly". Are you getting a login display? From looking at the sddm log it would seem you are getting a login display and are trying to login. This line suggests this....

Check to see if you have a /var/lib/sddm/state.conf file. If so, what are the contents. -- A motto of mine is: When in doubt, try it out
