You ask a lot of questions difficult to explain. I don't have it
all figured out, but what I know is not easy to say.
It will make more sense after you understand. ;)
I've been working on a graphic that is pretty much (enough)
accurate, and which has been educational to me in figuring out the
flow of it all.

The source for that dot graph is here

only the releases have ISOs. but you could make an iso from the
newer src tags with the build.sh script.
good luck!
