Yes, potentially.
But, the primary goal of backups is recovery. You have to balance the ongoing
space needs with the time to restore.
With a disk only solution, speed is a little more in your favor, but using
DIFFs rather than INCR backups

Yes, there is a much easier way.
Do your Full, then don't do Incrementals. Do Differentials instead.
A full Restore from Full/Differentials only requires that you have the
latest Full and latest Differential.

latest Full, plus all

As I said, a highly dynamic set of data will hurt your cause with
Differentials - they grow in size until the next Full.
You'll have to calculate that for your environment by looking at the
