Yes

> 2. Does aging alter the tone of prints made with VM?

The cool tones change the least. In my case, not at all.

A tiny bit, but much less than most inks. Especially Lyson, which have
much metamerism.


> 4. Does the choice of paper have a marked effect on the achieved tone?

Yup. All papers are different, each has its own characteristics.
