So higher entities place these arbitrary rites as a condition for their 'placing the chair in 2D space' so to speak?

Sort of. Imagine your ability to move the chair was linked to how comfortable you felt with the people asking, and you could increase your comfort with the people asking by having them speak, think, act, or whatever else in a certain way.

Would the efficacy of the ritual be impacted by the feeling of annoyance/pointlessness in performing it? I.e. it's not doubting the effectiveness of the steps your boss tells you to take to complete a task by the book, it's that doing every step is a hand hold waste of time which could be accomplished more efficiently, in less time by skipping unnecessary components?

Consider what  said. Why do humans help animals? What do we get from it?

Is it more an aspect of LHP to require all of the rites as a condition for the spell than for RHP? I've noticed most spells for invocations and curses etc, require all of the ceremony, but white magics, namely healing, seem to be more akin to manipulating the energy in oneself and environment to get intended effect via meditation/prayer rather than resort to rituals.

LHP and RHP's distinction is not in method/ceremony so much as purpose and intention.
Many prayers are forms of RHP. But not many who pray have much skill in occultism, or really believe their prayers will work. Most people who study occultism go LHP because they are already very individualist and self-oriented, and occultism by its nature is detached from much of wider society. So its simply that most occultists with talent are LHP because most occult practitioners in general are LHP.
But you can easily craft rituals, ceremonies or sacrifices for RHP magic. I do. It's just far less personally rewarding, at least materially, and certainly in the short term.
