You can have a 50 fps project. 720p/50

Correct.

You can't remove it. You can change it to play at another speed. Since the
sequence determines the frame rate of playback, any non-native clip has to
have a motion adapter applied to it - even if it is later modified to match
the initial frame rate (playback @ 100%).

Since you can't take it off, only modify it, the refresh sequence command
will obey the new setting. (Nothing changes.) Once you promote the default
adapter to a Timewarp, it won't get refreshed.

As stated above. That's exactly what happens when you modify the initial
adapter.

No. It's how Media Composer handles mixed frame rate sources in a sequence.

Not quite true. It's taking a full frame and using it as a single field -
half the resolution.
