Update
Three weeks in, and the ghost orchids look fantastic. I have only seen maybe two of over 100 shrivel. I think this new outdoor terrarium setup will be successful and will just have to be relocated (pick up and set somewhere else, easy) a few times per year due to changing sunlight levels and temperatures. Going forward, this type of setup will likely become the "cornerstone" of my leafless orchid cultivation practice. Bare root plants spread out on hardware cloth a few inches above water in a large clear plastic tub with a screen over the top.
The leafless that I acquire already firmly coiled around sticks and other mounts will be gradually adapted to a variation on this concept that will accommodate small hanging mounts.
