I’m using 6.1 64-bit (direct downloads) and 7 (via PharoLauncher).

Pharo 7 version of Seaside is WIP: https://github.com/SeasideSt/Seaside/tree/pharo7 <https://github.com/SeasideSt/Seaside/tree/pharo7>
Also mind that some changes to master have not been added to develop yet: https://github.com/SeasideSt/Seaside/pull/989 <https://github.com/SeasideSt/Seaside/pull/989>

Correct, except that Grease is metadataless only for the Pharo7 package (since I did that with Iceberg).
Unfortunately, that makes it unloadable in Pharo3-4 as well.

Using Iceberg means: metadataless and thus we drop support for a number of platforms.

TBD?
