I read somewhere about an option or a package to scrbook that allowed you to emulate/replicate the look of book, but now I can't seem to find it. Could you point me in the right direction? (Or did I dream this?)

There is also the option emulatestandardclasses. Note that this option loads package scrlayer-scrpage. So it can not be used together with fancyhdr.
\documentclass[
emulatestandardclasses
]{scrbook}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Foo}
\lipsum[1]
\section{Bar}
\lipsum[2-10]
\end{document}

The option
emulatestandardclassesis not mentioned in the manual of KOMA.– egregNov 18, 2022 at 21:37 -
You emulate the look of book by using the document class option
headings=standardclasses
Example
\documentclass[
headings=standardclasses,
]{scrbook}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Title}
\section{A section}
text
\end{document}
You get the look of scrbook, but with serif titles, with the option

What a badge of honor! I too do not particularly like serif titles. At least not the default ones :-) Nov 18, 2022 at 21:21
egregdoesnotlikesansseriftitlesoption?emulatestandardclasses?bookclass instead of trying to emulate it?scrbookbefore and so I'm trying it out. I like the idea of being able to set any font size, but I felt that the different styles went a bit too far and so I wanted to ease into KOMA Script :-)bookclass and load packagescrextend(part of the KOMA-Script bundle) with optionfontsize.
