no, it implies that results are written in a different way

in some earlier versions, a different scheme for broadening was
used in the calculation of the 'double-delta' integrals. Presently
a simple gaussian is used (ngauss=0), while Methfessel-Paxton
broadening of order one (ngauss=1) was used instead. I don't
see any good reason to use the latter instead of the former,
since all we need is a representation of the delta. This may lead
to some differences.

you can run the phonon code in parallel. The el-ph part is
not parallelised but it doesn't cost much by itself

you can, but it is a mess

in principle you can, but the code does not implement it
