Yes. Or a Dremel!

Yes absolutely.
I always do it if the crown race isn't slotted

Yep, done it to mine before including to a Hope 1.5" reducer adapter

Only on cartridge bearings, steering would get lumpy with loose or cadged bearings

Yep. You can even do it if it's got a rubber seal, though it takes some care

His hacksaw won't get through a bearing race 😁
