Chess.com's Tactic Training

For those who have climbed from 1200 past 1700:

1. Is there a value in doing very high volume of tactics training at a very rapid rate, to eventually instantly recognize patterns? (Or, should a 1200-1400 player go slowly, doing less, but going for accuracy). (or, is both wise?)

2. I have noticed that in playing out the tactic against the computer, when I set it at Expert Level, the response move is sometimes different than the move played in the tactic!

Could an expert comment on this, please?

thank you!
