Diamond Princess with its 454 cases and not a single death is the cleanest micromodel of the character of the disease. The only place where they check everyone - and pick up all mild and asymptomatic cases.

2/ This would suggest that we may be aware of only a rather small fraction of the cases, mostly the sickest ones. OTOH, the relatively high fatality among the medical personnel argues to the contrary.
3/ It’s still very early in the pandemic. Over time, the true patterns of the disease will continue to emerge.
