It says chin over the bar is the MINIMUM. Would striving to keep it nearer the sternum carry over to MU much do you think?

Yes.

Definetly. This is one of the things I did when I trained for muscle up. Pull ups on rings until the rings hit the middle of the chest, pause in this position and then repeat.
Using a doorway mounted pullup bar, I'm doing the hold until my forehead touches the wall above the door. As the holds get longer (48 -60 secs) I feel like this has the side benefit of making the hold more comfortable/stable too, taking the pressure off my arms and putting it on my shoulders/back.
