Some questions about disguise/cloak

[ʍolɟ ǝɥʇ ǝsɹǝʌǝɹ]

It doesn't seem to work well with cloning. I tried cloning a disguised card but it only makes a token. With tokens being double sided now, why doesn't this work? I saw this happening with the blade of shared souls, it wasn't copying the card as it was. I'm guessing that works that way with other clone spells as well. Ah I found the rule for this 702.168b. Missed opportunity IMO, could have let you flip cards for their mana cost if there was no alternative cost.

Is there any other way to flip the card other than playing disguise cost? Again, with something like blade of shared souls and day/night cards.

Does it count as a token or a card? Does mirror box buff multiple?

How would this work in real life. Couldn't I just cast any card as disguised and it wouldn't matter if I won with it on the board?

You absolutely must reveal face down cards when the game ends so if your card did not have disguise or morph or mega morph or some other mechanic that let it be face down and you won after casting it, you'd be caught out there and lose.

There are number of ways to flip cards. There was an Astral Slide deck back in the day that flipped morphed red akroma for a nasty surprise. There are cards in the current set that flip face down cards specifically. Expose the Culprit and Yarus as well as Etrata.

as to mirror box:

from the card's errata on gatherer:

2/18/2022 A face-down creature has no name, so it doesn't have the same name as anything else.

So I think the cards are still non-token.

I think expose the culprit might be a must include for disguise and cloak. But I'm unable to order the modes on the stack. Is it a rule that multi mode cards resolve in the order they are printed? For high disguise cost cards, you either flip for cast of expose or get value again for cloak cost as alternative cost. I can see how the bubble smuggler is intended to be flipped with this expose card or cast face up and flipped with cloak cost. Its unplayable without this combo, but ok with it.

With how restrictive rules are considering this mechanic, it really takes a lot of fun out of the homebrewing. Makes it feel bad tbh. I do like cloak over disguise though
