2nd, NEVER tell an employer or prospective employer that you're job searching.
3rd, I understand your point, but it really only applies depending on who also is applying for the same job. Walmart is more apt to hire a 30-year old over an 18-year old if they think the former would be more reliable. As you said, it costs money to train someone and they would be wary of hiring a teen if they think he's not going to stay there past orientation.
4th, I like cheese and bacon on my burgers.

1.  Makes sense...it's been a while since I even thought of resume-free applications
2.  Easy, but unless you are in "actor mode" they might realize you aren't a standard minimum wage worker
3.  True, but why hire an ambitious guy who might run up against you when you are looking to ascend (unless they'd actually give you credit for bringing someone ambitious in) when you can hire a schlub who won't rock the boat?
4.  I'm going to get your burger wrong to test my hypothesis that people are jerks
