Yes.  Those nodes can't connect to you and get data from your node, but
you can connect to them and get older data from them.  Think of
lastGoodBuild as a "readonly" level.  If I upgrade to the newest
experimental branch with NGRv2 and set a floor of build 6251, there will
be like 4 nodes I could talk to.  Mine, Toad's and two other early
adopters.  That's why you can connect to older builds, but they can't
connect to you.

No.  That's a network-wide "floor" on the minimum build.  You don't want
to have everyone running with a different setting.  It gets bumped when
there's a major reason to.  When the 'stable' branch is stable enough
for a point-release, it will probably get bumped again then.
