You don't have to host courses in an LMS. They can be hosted on servers. The drawback is you don't have any completion statistics. It's also possible to host in external LMS.
As your main rapid authoring tool for development will be Articulate...and probably thus Storyline and Rise, your main concern is that the LMS works properly with Articulate Scorm and xApi output. If you will be outputting Scorm or xApi that is.
Some work perfectly, others not. So its something to test and research for sure. And most LMS vendors will blame the developer of the authoring tool and the developers will blame the LMS-company, so it is really important to see and test it working.
Personally i use Wordpress in combo with Brian Batt's Wordpress plugin to install Articulate courses quick and easy. https://www.elearningfreak.com/
I know both Moodle and Canvas have issues with getting data properly from Articulate courses. I know Docebo and TalentLMS work well with Articulate data.

Thank you!
May I ask - possibly you could share on how to get funding from Articulate?
Actually they got funding FOR Articulate, no doubt from an unknown source.

But as said...do test it yourself upfront.
