That is a good reason to pick CEPH.

Only if you wish the nodes to be both Storage and Compute. Yet, you can
add as many as you wish as a compute node (won't be part of Gluster)
and later you can add them to the Gluster TSP (this requires 3 nodes at
a time).

Actually , it's about Red Hat support for RHHI and not for Gluster +
oVirt.  As  both oVirt and Gluster ,that are used, are upstream
projects, support is on best effort from the community.

Yes it is. You got the knowledge to run the CEPH part, yet consider
talking with some of the devs on the list - as there were some changes
recently in oVirt's support for CEPH.
