I love Bulleit. I will take WT 101 over BT any day.

Don't be that guy. It sometimes help to cut with water if you're new to bourbon. Also, high ABV bourbons can actually open up more with a bit of water. I don't do it much but I will at times if the finish is a bit "off."
I find it ruins it. Water afterwards to clean or take the sting away if needed. Even Stagg Jr at almost 140 is better to me neat.

Depends on the bourbon. Even just a few minutes sitting in ice, significantly changes the taste for me. On many bourbons it ruins the finish IMO and decreases the mouth feel.

But drink the damn bourbon how you like, that's how I see it.
