That said, in the home stretch of this project, my wife has reevaluated and decided that the spare bedroom should now also run perpendicular to the hallway floor.
Not a big deal to change direction. BUT the hallway floor current ends with a full - width board on the inside of thredoorstop. Less than 1" more and it would have been center of the door jamb
My question now is.... if I don't want the headache of ripping a small board, fitting to size, grooving and resplining, is it better to have a full board finish outside the door, or just inside?
.....or do I just keep that room going the same direction as the hallway.
While I avoid the issue above, the direction of that room won't be the same as the other bedrooms.
(Room is pretty much a smaller square room, so not really long in any direction)

If you run the room perpendicular to the hallway, as your wife has suggested, and you don't want to do any ripping/splining, etc then letting the hallway board end inside the room would give the hallway a more homogeneous look when all the bedroom doors are closed. It would look funny if the room boards stuck out under the door....as the other bedrooms (#1 and #2) would have.
