Maybe systemd is a bit more picky, but at least in the past, the root
partition did not need to be present in /etc/fstab, so in many cases
there was no need to do anything at all when moving the root partition
elsewhere (other than tell the boot-loader, of course, but that
shouldn't be an issue in your case).

More or less.

Use LVM, of course (and you can use LVM snapshots to speed up the
cloning).

Other than that, not sure what's the question.
