If they make a US men’s size 13, I’m in. Unlikely, I know.

This is a (very minor) nitpick correction, but Miku (and all of Crypton's vocal synths) are technically no longer Vocaloids. While Crypton originally relied on Yamaha's Vocaloid engine in order to release their vocal synths, they have since created their own Piapro Studio engine and have discontinued any future Vocaloid releases since 2019 (though they still provide extremely sporadic updates to older synths). This is why you'll notice most branding of Miku and co. nowadays try to frame them as "Virtual Singers" instead of Vocaloids.
