Not necessary, eg if you are wiping at the start of stage 2, you will
still wipe at the start of stage 2. Only the stage 2 and wipe will
come quicker now.

Yes, but if the boss is setup in stages then the 30% rule simply
shifts to per stage instead of overall. Any wipes that previously
were occuring between the 70% to 100% of the stage completion would
now complete instead of wiping :).

Overall, paired with a DPS increase, this will only make stuff
easier. The encounter will either be quicker, or certain strategies
that might have been needed to last that extra 30% might become
unnecessary so that you can adopt a simpler strategy at this point.
