Probing is the *only* way you can tell afaik.
We are basically grounding upper end of mic with a huge capacitor (AC), so we
need some R >>0Ohms on the lower end of mic to get some signal at all.

Without checking for correctness of #4306 basically yes.

Nope, for a number of reasons it won't work, just break function of hs-mic
completely. See explanation some lines above. HS-Mic is singlen-ended (lower
pin connected to GND)
