HD+ ROM/recovery upgrade questions



I picked up an HD+ to setup for mom to use. Although I have plenty of experience with other devices, I am learning that HD+ is a bit unique in how it upgrades.

This leads to some questions. The HD+ currently has TWRP and CM12.1 installed.

1) To upgrade TWRP to a newer build (I found a 3.0.1.0 zip), is it as simple as flashing the zip?
2) To upgrade from CM12.1 to a new AOSP MM build, is it as simple as wipe, flashing the zip, and then GApps in TWRP?
3) Related to #2 above, I presume GApps is needed for AOSP builds? The standard GApps will work?
4) In terms of stability and reliability, how is AOSP compared to CM13?

Thanks.
