What is the price differential in making ethanol from corn vs ethane? Does it cost too much to get rid of the methanol/butanol fraction from ethane-generated ethanol?

To be clear, you can make ethanol from ethane, but it would cost more money than the ethanol is worth.
It is not part of our fuel ethanol supply chain.
