The JustStock meets the first three. It will run without a booster on 1 cell but some radio systems need more than 3.7v to operate plus the servo is slowed and weakened due to low voltage.

The only products from HW that can not have timing programmed in are the JustStock and XR10 JustStock. The Stock Spec (both versions) can be programmed with timing.

So now the first three are all I need. I will go down the ROAR list again, then check each manufacturer's manual for any indication of a timing method or mode.

Fixed timing is getting pretty rare! Since I have all the data here, I just did a quick scan and came up with the following for 2s operation:

HobbyWing Justock XR10
Reedy Blackbox 800Z
Tekin RS Gen2 Spec
Turnigy Trackstar 60A Sportsman

You left out the Tekin RS spec.

It has no timing adjustment.

You can program several things on the esc. I have 2 of them You Can NOT adjust timing in it.

From the page.

1S Zero timing
World's smallest & compact ESC.
'23.5 g'

The XR10 Stock Spec 1s has a non-timing profile preset. Timing is locked at zero in this profile. Timing can be added by changing to a different profile. All of this is within the existing software.

That is what i found when i read the manual on the XR10 Stock Spec's. They have a locked mode (as do several others). But take it out of that mode and timing can be programmed.

As long as you see the red LED at 0.25 seconds/flash, it's in zero timing regardless of the profile.

Tekin RS Spec has no timing profile options. The RS Gen 2 does have Blinky and optional timing profiles.

The Tekin product page states that the Spec is always in non-timing mode, as stated by yzracer758. But the link to the manual is for the regular GenII, which does have adjustable timing. I don't know if the link is incorrect, or that there simply is no separate manual for the Spec version.
