I think, that your usage of "cold inlets" might be the cause. Cold
inlets are for example the right one in the add-objet [+ ]

If you add two numbers with this, only the left inlet outputs the
addition's result, the tight inlet just set the number to add, but
doesn't output anything. 

If you want another behaviour, you should put a trigger in fromt of
the add, to bang the left inlet as well as put the float into the
right one:

[trigger bang float] == [t b f]  

[f] [t b f]
 \ /  /
  [+ ]
   |
    ...
   
Also see 03.connections.pd in the examples.

No. You can force a certain direction with subpatches (called macros
by you), but often this isn't necessary. Also beware, that a [del]
objects always delays messages in blocksize boundaries, i.e.
at least 64*samplerate seconds

No.
