Great, keep on it!

THe 6H30 is better, because you can use a lot more current, and to directly drive output tubes, you need LOTS of current.

Maybe, but not much. 6H30 is a far better choice.

It doesn't. All my circuits use resistive loading.
Are you confusing this with the CCS in the cathodes? That's NOT the loading, and is used because it sounds far better than using a resitor to a high negative voltage.

It is far better, by actual test. And it has enough gain.
