They were made in different factories around the world and the ones from ESCOM are different again (they don't seem to yellow).

Yes, but only EC/LC. Full ones were never spec'ed higher than 66 MHz.

Using both integer units gives 80 MIPS at 50 MHz (linear scaling, so 160 MIPS at 100 MHz etc.).

RTG means you are not using OCS/ECS/AGA, but that is what the Amiga is all about. RTG stuff could also run on any other plattform with no difference in the result. So yes, RTG is kind of non-Amiga.
