That's an IPFS Hash tho, not IPNS. Differences matter.

Over time your IPNS could very well become your identity, linked everywhere in the net.
>IPNS doesn't give you the ability to edit content.
That is correct, but you can point at arbitrary content.
It's basically the equivalent to controlling the DNS A entry to a website, they can't modify the content and it's available under the same IP but they can still do a shitload of bad stuff because few people bother to actually link IP addresses.
Along with a link to all previous versions if there's a chain. And anyone pointing to a specific version will still see that rather than the new one.

Yes.

I think that's a bit strong.

I'm really not sure that's right, IPNS doesn't give you the ability to edit content.
