I think it's better to buy direct - Steam gives you flexibility to install the game on a bazillion computers, but that's the only real benefit. Buying direct still lets you install the game on two computers simultaneously. Mods are easier to deal with when you have the direct version, and patches aren't forced on you (and you can roll back if needed) when you buy direct. Additionally, a little more money goes to the pockets of the developers which is always a good thing.

Basically, yes. The provided installer is always the most current build so you don't have to worry about updating.

3b) Or do I HAVE to wait until OOTP 18 ... and should I just wait that long? :\
(It's too bad I just missed the World Series special. :\)

You have to start from the beginning of 2016. There's an off-chance that the community will make a post-season QuickStart but I really wouldn't hold my breath on that.
