Is there any reason to delay accepting an offer from a firm that you believe you will inevitably choose? Have heard back from all firms that I interviewed with at this point (have two offers). It's only been a week so I have time, but I'm wondering if there's any incentive to waiting?

One bonus I can think of is that some firms get higher yields than they anticipated on offers, but only want to hire a certain number (increasing the chance of no-offers at the end of the summer.) Then again if I accept now then they can consider that before extending further offers.

I don't see any advantage in waiting if you have no chance of getting more offers, and there is a tiny chance that the firm may have a higher yield than expected and attempt a soft pull of your offer, as discussed in the linked thread.

You should obviously wait if you might change your mind between the two offers.

No.

Even if this happens, they won't tell you and you won't know.
