Hi Kathy, welcome!

1) is actually why I still like Regulus for RAB, despite the extreme 
obviousness you mention in a snipped portion of your post. If it was 
he, he would have found the Horcrux and planned to destroy it after 
becoming disillusioned with Voldemort and the Death Eaters (of which 
organization he was a member...) He would be expecting to be killed 
soon for leaving the DEs.
