sorry for the late answer

1) because binds are useless when you have subvolumes
2) for several reason:
- "dot folder", i don't want to have them on my sd, it can cause troubles, these are system profiles files, your phone needs them, always. so umount your /home folder and you will running into troubles.
-speed, i don't know my sd card transfer rate compare to my system internal memory. but it's qui obvious that internal memory is faster. so keeping only files that need slow transfer rate is better
-the main goal is to be able to use sdcard like the good ol' floppy
