Well, in general, whoever wrote that section of the rule can answer you best, but here's my attempt.

Yes.  When it was proposed it was not a rule at all, but merely part of a proposal.  This follows from some subset of rules 0 and 3 and 5 and 6.

I'm inclined to believe so.  This is more debatable than the answer to your first question.

Really?  I didn't see this.
