Ironpython 2.7.7 means you are using old pyrevit release. Have you tried with the latest release with the 2711 engine?

And an old version of RPS which necessarily doesn’t help

Since I am stuck using Revit 2021, I assumed RPS and pyrevit installations from around that time period would be most compatible. I will try reinstalling more up to date versions of the add-ins. Thanks for the suggestions @jpitts @Jean-Marc

Using the latest installer still allowed me to run RPS for Revit 2021 and fixed the issue. My guess is a .NET version difference. Thanks again!
