Not a bad list, but I'm not sure how you got the pairings. #6 combines
brakes and struts. They both require taking off a wheel, but are
usually not done together.

Clutch and engine replacement are borderline home repair. I know a few
people that can do it, but very few.

I see no mention of spark plugs.
