Wife left my Miyabi 6000MCT soaking in water and dawn dish soap overnight for almost 12 hours -____- is this repairable or is it a goner?

That is a lot of edge metal you will have to remove!
This could be fixed fairly quickly on a diamond stone. I love the 4”x10” stones for kitchen knives.
I would repair it! Use a low grit diamond stone to quickly hog off some metal.
It’s not a hard fix though you will be taking a few mm of steel off the edge but if you have something like a diamond stone or a worksharp power sharpener it wouldn’t take long. As to if it’s worth fixing that’s a question you have to ask yourself about how much your time is worth, if this knife has any sentimental value, how much sharpening services near you charge, are you willing/able/prepared to fix it yourself, and what kind of sharpening job you need to get on your knife.
The water caused chips? I don’t understand.
