For the foreseeable future, at least, yes.

Exactly, they should use (3) or (1) depending on whether it is based on
some impression that it would be a better default for this particular
case, or whether it's in response to a specific user request
(e.g. calling find-file-other-window rather than find-file).
BTW, I'd be happy to get rid of all the foobar-other-window and
foobar-other-frame and instead provide new prefix commands that affect
the behavior of the next command, so instead of C-x 4 f, you'd do
something like C-x 4 and then C-x C-f. We would probably then add some
special hack to make C-x 4 f still work as before.

I mean all the calls to switch-to-buffer in Elisp code where the author
obviously didn't take into account the fact that there can be
minibuffer-only frames, or that the selected window can be dedicated,
etc...
IOW put switch-to-buffer in byte-compile-interactive-only-functions
which we currently can't do because we don't have a good replacement
for it yet.
