8. Smoking is not lossy if you do it right. I inhale 100% of what I smoke.

I use a "hash" pipe, that has a sliding cover. I pinch a little ground bud, one lung-full. If I take too much, sliding the cover snuffs it. There is some accumulation on the pipe. So maybe not 100%.

As you point out, there are perhaps some qualitative differences between smoked and vaped weed. I have heard that only smoking renders the cannabinoids in a form that is most psychoactive. Theoretically, (as told to me) the higher temps more thoroughly break up the chains of organic cannabinoid molecules, facilitating happiness.
