Please let me set user profile roles using relation, lookup or template columns. It seems to only want to pull from text columns. ---

Those are computed columns. Computed columns are computed on the user’s device. To allow it to work, glide would first have to send ALL data to a user’s device before it can determine the proper Role to check if that role owns the rows or not. At that point data security would already be breached. ---
