Most people btw have at least 50 addresses - clients generate them ahead of time, you just don't see them until you need them.

For example, when you ask bitcoin core to make a new payment address for you, the one it gives you it made some time ago and the one it makes you don't see, just added to the cue.

This is done so that when you back your wallet, it backs up addresses you haven't used yet.
I hereby reserve the right to sometimes be wrong

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

I use more than one bitcoin address, because its more secure so you cannot get hacked.
Many people are doing I also have multiple steps to login in my wallets, so it cannot get hacked easy.
