This is not allowed, and makes no sense.
exporting "/export" exports everything below /export that is in the
same filesystem, so exporting "/export/home" as well servers no
purpose and is not allowed (unless /export/home is a separate
filesystem).
Simply remove the second line and your problems should go away.

This is an unanswerable question. The future of Linux is completely
undefined until it happens.
What exactly do you mean by "better" anyway?
