3. If so, if he comes in for the player that was being DHd for, that's simple.
4. If he comes in and the coach removes a player that is batting, the player that was being DHd for now slides into the removed player's batting slot.

Correct?
1) False [assuming the runner is NOT the DH's defensive counterpart]
2) True, as the DH or on offense
3) True
4) False: both the DH and the offensive player counterpart are, like everyone else in the batting order, locked in place in the batting order. Nobody in the batting order can "slide" into a different slot.
