Not likely. More likely that the rotors are not seated properly on the hubs (if you didn't clean the hubs when you installed them).
Not recommended.
No, because you can't likely show them to be defective.

I would imagine if one is bad they would both need to be shaved down to the same thickness, or I suppose i could just get one replacement rotor.

If it is runout, you can measure it with a dial gauge. If it is out of balance, you can determine it with a dynamic wheel balance.
Yes, by turning them on a brake lathe. You are taking off so little that it isn't a worry.
No need to turn both, if you can isolate the problem.
Lots of questions. Have you considered taking it to a shop as recommended in your previous post which you reference above? You can spend a lot of time and money randomly replacing parts.
