Correct.

I don't understand what you mean by this... for efficiency (of which, if
you use the advanced method, you gain almost none) you're willing to

doesn't seem like a winning trade-off to me :).

No.  There could be some workaround available to keep make from
remaking, but you'll need to describe to us what you really want to
happen, in detail.  When should these .d files get updated?
