   It would be evaporating VERY slowly.

   Yes.  Inside a black hole, you are not at the singularity if you can=20   
   still observe anything, hence you cannot observe isotropy, whereas you=20   
   can in an expanding isotropic space.

   No.   
      
   Keep in mind that there is no consensus on whether firewalls even exist.
