Am I to understand that Tomcat 8.5.40 can use the ".cer," ".ca.crt"
and ".key" files directly, instead of the Java Keystore file?

Correct!
I tried an experiment this afternoon:
I made a copy of the existing server.xml file, and I changed the active
connector from this (keystore file and alias redacted for privacy,
ciphers and compressibleMimeTypes clauses redacted because they're quite
long, and not relevant here):
<Connector port="8443" proxyPort="443"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
compression="on" compressionMinSize="2048" noCompressionUserAgents="gozilla,
traviata"
compressableMimeType="[REDACTED]"
maxThreads="1000" socket.appReadBufSize="1024" socket.appWriteBufSize="1024"
bufferSize="1024"
SSLEnabled="true" scheme="https" secure="true"
keystoreFile="[REDACTED]" keyAlias="[REDACTED]" ciphers="[REDACTED]"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" />
to this:
<Connector port="8443" proxyPort="443"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
compression="on" compressionMinSize="2048" noCompressionUserAgents="gozilla,
traviata"
compressableMimeType="[REDACTED]"
maxThreads="1000" socket.appReadBufSize="1024" socket.appWriteBufSize="1024"
bufferSize="1024"
SSLEnabled="true" scheme="https" secure="true">
<SSLHostConfig ciphers="[REDACTED]"
certificateVerification="none" sslProtocol="TLS">
<Certificate certificateFile="[REDACTED].cer"
certificateKeyFile="[REDACTED].key"
certificateChainFile="[REDACTED].ca.crt" />
</SSLHostConfig>
</Connector>
and restarted Tomcat, and it failed to open the port, producing this in
catalina.out:

Can anybody explain what I did wrong? These are fully-qualified paths to
the certificate, chain, and key files. [REDACTED].ca.crt contains a
certificate chain; [REDACTED].cer contains a certificate, and
[REDACTED].key contains a private key, and they all work in Apache
httpd, on the same box.
