So, I did some research on this Akitio card. It's a Tehuti 3rd generation TN4010 chip, with an Aquantia controller chip. More importantly, Akitio does provide an actual macOS driver......https://www.akitio.com/software/10g-ethernet-driver
Yep, that's what I was looking at too Version 1.52 "Mac driver for macOS 10.13.x and macOS 10.14.x" from 11/21/18.
Then add one of these : https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/replacement_for/1358307-REG/buffalo_bs_xp2008_8_port_desktop_rackmount_10_gbe.html
Above is $780 though & you're all set. Unfortunately, looks like the $550 8-port version of the Buffalo switch - BS-XP20 - is discontinued. I don't need 12 10GB ports. I can get by on 4 ports for $350 or even 8 for $500 . . .
Another switch:

Wait - Looks like this Buffalo is still available:
