My PW3 is jailbroken via the 5.6.5 method. Is there any difference or advantage to using the new jailbreak?

Also, if for some reason my Kindle ever needs to be factory reset what would I need to do restore the jailbreak? Would I just use the new method or does the jailbreak survive the reset and I would just need to reinstall the hotfix? If I use the new method is it necessary for me to disable special offers? Lastly, does a factory reset revert back to the factory firmware version or would it go straight to what I’m using now (5.7.4.1). Thanks.
