Basic strategy is the same for every game. It will be different for different set of rules, but it will be independant of the count you are using.
Index plays are deviations from basic strategy and thats where the count that you are using comes into play.
What you should do to answer those 3 questions (and any other you may come up with) is get the full list of indices for the count you are using.
I dont use REKO, but 5-5 is always treated as hard 10 (since obviously you are never going to split that hand), and 7-7 against a 10 is always going to be treated as a 14 since you will never split that hand against a 10. So you are either going to hit it in a low count or youll surrender otherwise.
You should hit 12 vs 4 in low counts.
