You're not that confused. :)

Q1: In your case, directly

Q2: Yes, it will be redundant.

It doesn't make much sense to say that the FB component is a bridge but otherwise your reasoning is correct:

- In a SOPC with just 2 masters and 1 slave, there is nothing to gain by inserting a pipeline bridge.

- Since the FB component can use different clocks for the -ST and the -MM interfaces, you don't need a dual clock bridge.

Q3: Correct.

Q4: Don't know, actually.
