My information is solely based on our one early am departure but....
1.) Def nice and easy
2.) Migracheck lets you bypass the relatively long line for passport control when exiting the country. And prior to our experience, we had heard stories about the long waits to get through passport control at LIM airport even for early morning departures.
3.) I think for foreigners it's only for departures - but I am not certain
4.) Doubt there's any material difference between the time getting to LIM that early in the morning from Miraflores vs San Isidro
