Just ordered Redmi Note 3 Pro - Some questions

Hi,
I'm currently waiting for my Xiaomi device and I have some questions before rooting the phone and doing some other mods.
First of all I'll mention that I've got huge experience in flashing roms, modding etc (just not with Xiaomi), so you don't have to use noob-friendly language.

1)I bought the "Pro" variant, with 16MPx, sdcard expansion and snapdragon 650.
So can I flash any rom that is included in this section: http://ift.tt/26xhV3o or is there a difference between Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon & Note 3 Pro?
According to this thread: http://ift.tt/26xhV3r it's the same, but I just want to be 100% sure as I just bricked my previous device by flashing a wrong ROM (from other device)
Oh, and I hope the storage option doesn't really matter for ROM flashing, right?

2)I've seen some 2 methods of unlocking bootloader. First one is official, where we sometimes have to wait for some longer time to get the code and the second one is unofficial.
Are there any (dis)advantages using both of the methods, and do I have to use developer ROM to unlock it the official way? Which one is safer?

3)In case my phone would be stuck in a bootloop, can I use MiFlash to repair it?
Do I need to have modified boot.img to do this?

4)Let's assume I have China ROM stable edition. Will I be able to install via update menu the dev version (with locked bootloader) and obtain root by doing this?

5)Can I use FlashFire to flash any zip (of course not a ROM), like some audio mods etc, or am I only allowed to install Xposed with it?

6)Let's say I just flashed a ROM through TWRP but forgot to delete the emmc_appsboot.mbn file. I didn't reboot the phone yet. Will flashing a new ROM (with deleted file), restoring old backup or just deleting the file from system partition (If it exists there) prevent it from bricking?

7)What's with the modified boot.img? I don't quite understand what it's for and when to use it.

Ok, so I think that's all for now. I know these are a lot, but I just want to have some basic information about the phone before I start rooting it.
If you know some good threads that will answer my questions, please post them as an answer.
