Primarily 1), also
4) auditing output is a little more difficult because it's much more common to have a _lot_ of output (e.g. (find -name '*.c')), so TTY auditing should probably be able to throttle the TTY throughput. (In principle the same problem is with input as well - with a PTY I can cause massive amount of data to be audited - but it doesn't occur accidentally.)
