Yes. I just finished stripping about 400 sf of roof to put down a double
layer of ice and snow block to cure a stubborn series of leaks over a
shallow cricket. IMO. CFLs and LEDs just don't cost that much to run.
Besides, a little waste heat is a bonus half of the year.

Won’t be the last hole I’ll cut in a roof. If it’s done carefully and
correctly, leaks should be the last thing to worry about.
I’ve cut holes in a number of roofs for skylights, exhaust stacks, fans, etc.
Never had a leak to this day.

Stall is all about airspeed (not enough) and angle of attack (too much).
Amazing vertical wind currents are possible around thunder storms.
Downdrafts can be dangerous. I don't see how an updraft would cause a crash

The teeth engage in a rack attached to the mounting bracket.
Turning the bolt causing the alternator to pivot - either to
tighten or loosen the belt. Unless the mounting bracket isn't flat
so the teeth don't fully engage, or the teeth are wore off.
It would, but sunlight is free.
