    There is no benefit to a sitemap unless some of your pages are
    so deep in your site they have gotten lost. If that's the case,
    revamp your site instead of using a sitemap.

    That answers 5 of your 4 questions.

    1. Is a link page that your users can follow if the get lost on your website. As for the search engines, it gives them a basic roadmap to follow to get to other pages within your site.

    2. Giving the search engines a map to follow to further index your site.

    3. xml is a better format for the google bot to read. HTML should be used on your site to let your visitors have easy access to anything should they need it or get lost looking for something.

    4. Submit through webmaster tools.

    5. Very important, it helps all your pages get indexed at a quicker rate.

    Hope that helps.
