You have more bandwidth but not usually lower latency.

Depends on the keyboard.

It seems that may chipsets still use the 31.25kbaud (probably because
you can get USB to physical MIDI ASIC cheap off the shelf).

You can check with jack_midi_dump (or similar). Elbow press/release
30-40 notes on a keyboard and check if most individual note events are
spaced less than 1ms apart. If they are, then the interface is faster
than physical MIDI.
