Better in fade tests?
Please tell the link where to read it!

Regarding the hue:

IMHO the overall look of an BW-print can't be described by a single midtone measurement.
Equally measured the look can be quite different.

The prices:

For small carts and bulk ink you are right, but not for the larger 7xxx and 9xxx carts.
