I find that information useful from an analytic point of view. Depends what
hypotheses you want to test.

A direct one, I would say. The primaries form the physical boundaries of the
gamut.

IMO yes.

I would certainly hope not! I know for a fact that there is no such
reduction in the case of matrix/shaper profile because the encoded primaries
are the physically measured primaries adapted to the PCS. As for LUT-type
monitor profile, I'm not as positive. Although, again, I'd be disapointed if
basICColor Display or MonacoOptix XR pro or OptiCal or iMatch (have I left
any important one out? -- how about Monitor Expert Calibrator from Alwan)
effectively reduces the gamut size in the process of characterizing
displays.

Oh yes. It's just a pain in the neck to access raw data when all we have is
an ICC monitor profile.

True, but I am interested to understand why. I never take any results of any
profiling workflow at face value -- if I can.
