That works but is not necessary. You need to use the old gbak when
going back to an old ODS and old server. The new gbak is aware of
new features and backs up elements that old gbak's and servers don't
understand.

That's right.

Yes. Gbak creates indexes after the data is stored, so it uses the
"fast load" algorithm that also resets selectivity.
