A high pitched noise sounds like a bearing in motor or transmission. Doubt there's a belt, which could also make some noise when slipping.
And yes, belt can start and stop slipping. Not much to loose, if you "run it into the ground".
The second problem seems independent. Now that you know how to reset it, again wait for it to fail. Replacing both, would be costly,
if you pay someone to do it. Have no idea what the parts are.
Both I consider DIY on a dishwasher. Take some patience, but can be done if you take pictures along the way, how things go back together.

For many weeks, our dishwasher has
been making a fairly loud higher-pitched whistle/whine for
the first few minutes of the wash cycle.
What repair strategy would you suggest? I am not
averse to spending $200-$350 in parts as this was one of
KitchenAid39;s higher-end machines. Besides the control
panel and the motor/wash arm assembly, what else would
really go wrong with the machine?

So the high pitch noise is either from the bearing or a seal around pump shaft.
Some dishwasher actually bind between seal and a shaft, after a period of none use. You could squirt some WD-40, if you can get to it.
No all oils are compatible with rubber, but but a little may not hurt. We don't even know if it's a bearing or the seal.
Of course the sprying arm turs as well, but much slower, so a constant noise is more likely form faster turning part.

Yes, that
is correct Rich there is not belt in this machine nor is
there a transmission. the motor drives the pump and
disposer blade
directly. Have
some fun and try the DIY method!
