I personally would love one. Getting back into crypto after a long hiatus, would love to set up a mini plug&play rig that can hold it's own against the mass of ASICs nowadays. Still have a have a block eruptor in a desk somewhere, have fond memories of that lil guy

Nah, often times the reason people join is to ask a question. If they are blocked from asking their question the moment they join it will be much more difficult to integrate them into the community

It is allowed, but one of their main uses (Signature Campaigns) ban them. It is not just moderators but any trusted member of the community (DT1 or DT2) that can give negative trust which will make the account wortless.
What does DT1 and DT2 mean? They are the two levels of Default Trust. EX: DefaultTrust is DT0, people trusted by DT0 are DT1, and people trusted by DT1 are DT2, etc.

No the private address or private key and the public key are derived using a mathematical formula. There are Services out there that attempt to give you a vanity address, but all they have done is generating a mass number of keys and parse the list that they've come up with for some common words names things like that.
The private key is Created from the public key using math that same public cable always produce that same private key and vice versa. If the private key is made from the public key, what's stopping me from taking your bitcoin address (public key), calculating the private key, and taking your coins? It is only a one way calculation. The Private Key can get the public key, but not vice-versa.
