I wasn't shifting, hadn't hit a bump, etc. The chainring is about 3 years old, chain is much newer, but have never had a problem with it until now. Chorus fwiw.

I did see a tiny nick on one of the teeth of the big ring; I wonder if that was from the gravel stage the day before or something..

Anyway what can cause this, and wtf can I do to fix it??

I need confidence in my chain again!!
yeah I've been dropping off to the outside too.. usually during a soft peddle shifting from inner to large... annoying. Also on the trainer during Zwift sprints it's falls when hitting 800-900w.. I can kind of feeling it, so I let off. I'm on 9070 Di2... pretty much did what Chris is saying... it's been good for 2 weeks now both inside and outside.
