3. Yes.
4. Yes, I guess so ...

Martin - I realized that somewhere, I got confused about
landuse=retail/residential/ etc and amenity=school
I started thinking there was landuse=school landuse=hospital when there

So my previous comments probably made no sense. I'm really sorry about that.
You are exactly right
I knew I would be opening Pandora's box when I made those statements. As

Inquiring minds want to know.
Either compacted earth road (more specific) or unsurfaced road
(which I prefer); or green lane
But if the surface is rocky or stone, can it really be described as
surface of gravel mixed with a varying amount of sand, silt, and
