Epic Magic Seeds (What are they supposed to do exactly, and why are certain seeds "epic"?)

Some questions about various epic magic seeds:

Animate PC corpse seed: What exactly will this one one do (Can't test it out currently because of the inability to actually use the statue to start the research process).

Resurrection (the deferred item version): How will this work exactly? Will it function pretty much like wearing soul anchor boots, but just with the refunded xp?

Resurrection (the regular, not the deferred rez item one): What is the point of this one? What is the benefit of using an epic magic resurrection spell over the regular resurrection spell?

Invisibility/Improved Invisibility seeds: What is the point/benefit of these? Besides a longer duration (21 min minutes for a level 21 caster, 80 minutes for a 40th level using extended... both of which are already insanely long)... what's the benefit?

Compel:Disarm, and unequip armor/helm/shield: Will these suffer the same problem as disarming wave (namely the creature just re-equips them right after you cast the spell)?

Compel: Spasm: Will this affect the creature negatively somehow, or is it just applying a spasm animation?

Compel: Sleep: What's the benefit of this over the 2nd level spell?

Compel: Stand Still: Is this a paralyze, or are they still free to act, but simply made immobile?

Reveal seeds (invis, sanctuary): It says on the webpage "target 1 creature", but I don't see how this would work (pun intended ) If the target is invisible, you can't target them unless you can see them... at which case... the seed makes no sense. For sactuary... even if you can "see" the target (ie, you have true seeing), you can't target the creature anyway...

Slay seeds (kill up to X HP creature): The webpage says save for partial... how much partial damage?

The damage shields for 40 points: What's that mean exactly? It does 40 points when you get hit? Straight 40 damage?

Well... as a side note, unequipped armor cannot be re-equipped in combat.... other stuff, yeah kinda pointless on the disarm ones.

As an aside, where is the post on epic magic listing all the commands? I am going blind and senile and cannot find it anymore! Could one of you young whippersnappers post a link?
