Even better than neutral, put trans in PARK while stopped at lights, etc. This will be better for your engine than neutral, which doesnt provide the lubrication for the engine as well.
FALSE at least on every car I have been around.
Potential difference in transmission lubrication, however that should be totally fine even if there was a difference (which there shouldn't be).

But definitely 0 difference in engine lubrication.
