If you have to revert them, you can use those to restore the settings to the factory defaults.

I've also heard that you can restore to factory vales by selecting the "Code" option when the CAFD is active. I have not tried it myself. I think Shawn is the expert on this.
Yes, if you right-click on an ECU itself (NOT the underlying CAFD in the subfolder) and select CODE, you will reset the ECU to its as delivered condition, so long as you have the original factory FA (VO) active when doing so.
