How could I optimize this investment plan for my wife and I?

Please see diagram of plan here with ballpark figures, account balances, and investments: https://i.imgur.com/8y3XGqv.jpeg

This is all outside of 401k stuff

Could this be made more tax efficient? Anything I may be missing?

I was hoping this would be easy to read. But if it isn't here is an explanation:

Top box is general "Strategy" 70:20:10

Left boxes is me, right is wife. "Ideal" is what would fit the above strategy exactly. -> graphed into the center ring of both pie charts

"Current" is current total balances in accounts regardless of investment. -> graphed into outermost ring of pie charts

"Account, Funds, Plan" is hypothetical future allocation into various funds to match the strategy as closely as possible -> graphed into middle ring of pie charts. For example it assumes my wife's 25k sideline cash goes 7k into Roth and invests it in QQQ + 18k into brokerage invested into VOO.

I did it this way so I can update the blue boxes and see how it messes up the allocations. Then I can go into the grey boxes in the center and fine tune it. For example; I switch jobs and dump 100k into my IRA.
