silat in an umbrella term for traditional martial art practiced by malaya tribe, later it is named for martial art covered from south thailand to south Philippine. In indonesia alone it has over 600 style/systems that called them selves as silat system.
so answering your 1,2,3, i can safely say it is and it isn't, depends on the system of silat.
but this is from some one who never learn fma, only started learning 1 of hundreds silat style.
