What I get from this article is that the author doesn't like his friends. Facebook isn't forcing anyone to show too much cleavage during Spring Break. The solution is to get friends who share the same ideals as you.
(Another problem is that you want to grant access to your profile to someone, but you don't necessarily want to see their spam posts. If only there was some way to put people in "circles" or something...)
1. I have felt that there is an implicit social pressure on you to accept friend request from some people. Example:- A colleague who are not really friends with you and don't share the same ideals as you sends you a Friend request. What would one do?
2. I think they introduced the 'Subscribe' feature to address the need for asymmetric sharing.
Yes, and after you become this much of an expert on where to find all these settings, remember to keep checking your settings because Facebook has a history of opting you into things you already refused behind your back.

Accept the friend request, hide all their updates from showing on your news feed, and put them on limited profile view is one possible option.

I trust the internet hive mind to announce changes in Facebook privacy settings with all the subtlety of a fire engine. ;)
Setting them to only view your limited profile is one option.
