I also understand that if I change the routing or change any legs of the trip, that I will probably have to pay the new fare (if there is an increase) between original ticket and the reticketed one?

Once you are ticketed, the fare and rules apply. You can have all open segments after the first segment and there will be no change in the fare if you later reissue, except the $75 fee for reissue. The key is you MUST fly that 1st segment on the date that it is ticketed.
That is the advantage of these tickets. One can buy 11 months in advance and have 1 year from the date of the first flight to use the ticket, all at the fare when the ticket is actually purchased.
