I went a little overboard on the loss there, I don't know how much it lost but I do know that adding 2 quarts got the dipstick wet.

I don’t know how much I would have to lose to burn up the clutch seals, could 2 quarts do it?

I’ve got overdrive so no ZF22.

I thought the filter in these was basically just a screen like on a screen door and only caught the large pieces? Were you thinking it is clogged?

A few miles before I lost my forward motion I was getting on the highway (from a slower highway) and the car was very sluggish but not because the trans was slipping, it just went into a higher gear earlier than I expected.

I never detected the trans slipping, it just instantaneously lost power. That seemed a bit odd to me as my previous experience has been that clutch seals burning up start as a slight slip, then slip a little more and so on until you can’t move forward. I figured that because I was going 80mph the seals burned up so fast that I never got the ‘slowly slipping more and more’ experience.

I’ll pull the pan and see what I find. Maybe it’s the torque converter?

How could I narrow it down?
