Biggest advantage of that is that because they're going slower, you can say them slowly, pausing to remember the expanded peirush hamilim and have the appropriate kavana. Most places zoom through, except on Yom Kippur itself.

Reminds me of the person complaining about my father's layning (krias hathora):"you are layning so fast, that I don't even have time to look in rashi"

Are Chasidei Chabad makpid on chickens for Kapparos?
Or is it a family thing?

There's Kabbalistic symbolism (I think it's from the Arizal) to use a white rooster/hen for Kapporos.

It's actually brought down by the Ram'a, in the se'if in which the mechaber writes יש למנוע המנהג (of kaporos on a chicken).  So seemingly it was a minhag of all ashkenazim.

He should tell him to go daven by the Temanim. The baal kriah pauses after each pasuk and another guy standing by the bimah reads the targum. Let's just say it takes a little longer than askenazi laining. The complainer will have plenty of time for rashi.

Seems like the temanim's arba minim beats even the chabad ones.

How do you hold it, do you just grab a fistful of hadasim and use them as a holder?

We don't use holders, we bind the lulav together with the lulav itself.
