Answer 1

Only instructions shared by NEON and VFP can be executed conditionally.

(vldmia for example.)

For me, there have been a few situations where conditional execution could have saved me from some minor headaches, but in general, you won't need it that badly.

Take a careful look at the NEON logical and compare operations. They very well indicate how NEON is supposed to be programmed.
