Am I correct in understanding that the Final Duel winner may not be the World Sudoku Champion?
So this round is more like bonus points for the top 8 only?
Yes, the Final Duel winner may or may not be the World Sudoku Champion.

Do TEAM final results include all INDIVIDUAL rounds score?
Is it same as Round 16 The Final Duel?

In this round, the number of competiters who can solve is different among teams.

Individual scores (excluding Round 16: The Final Duel) will be divided by 4 before being counted toward the team standings. This means that the individual scores of a team will be roughly equivalent to the points from one team round.
