What you can learn from the archived site, on the other hand, is the site structure, eg this page at this URL was about "pink unicorns". So there would be benefits to keeping the URL the same and writing 100% original content about pink unicorns, or redirecting that URL to a new URL with 100% original content about pink unicorns. Best way to make sure your content is original is to not even look at the old page, but just at its title and URL.
You're half right, but its if the page had good links rather than just if the page existed
Learning what URLs good links go to and recreating/301'ing those is beneficial as to not waste them
