Doesn't answer any of your questions, but thanks for asking the query! 
The above bit of code fixed a problem I was having with scale ranges!  I 
was trying to use minZoom / maxZoom but the online documentation wasn't 
exactly very helpful, and I couldn't find any useful examples. Your 
above "scales: [  ]" did what I required.

I'm reading tiles from a WMS server. I have scale limits on the server 
(MapServer), but it seemed a bit inefficient if the same
limits weren't present on OpenLayers. For example at some common zoom 
levels, OpenLayers would pointlessly request a series of empty tiles.

Simple stuff, but I thought I'd let you know that your post helped a 
beginner!
