Yes you want the tire rotation to remain the same not to break the belts in the tire.

Don't do the X...Do like you stated in the second part of your question. If you X, you'll change the direction of rotation that the tire was originally subjected to. Thus doing the X, will reverse its rotation, possibly causing cord damage, and tire delam.

It all depends on who you ask! I'm from the old school and so we crossed like an X. Some of these new folks tell you front to back and vise versa! I geuss it's just a matter of personal choice as I have done them both ways and can't see any distinctive difference! As you can conclude from your answers which instruct you both ways! Personally, I would e-mail the tire manufacturer and go with their recommendation as they will be the one replacing the tire and making big decisions with your wallet!

IT depends on the tire . Some tires have directional tread and they can't go in an X pattern. If there is an arrow on your tires indicating a proper direction of rotation, than you can only move left front to left rear and right front to right rear.

If they are not directional, then you swap the fronts left to right and move them both to the back. then bring back tires straight to the front without swapping.

Bias ply tires (which are almost non-existent today), use the "X" pattern and work the spare into it.
Radial tires - front-to-rear, rear-to-front. Radial tires should not be rotated in an "X" pattern at all.
