1: MF is capped at 300% with the patch (375% if you got 5x Neph Valor).
2: As of right now, jars/chests/etc still not affected by MF.
3: Item level has zero bearing on Item quality (and vice-versa). More MF =/= More ilevel 63s. More MF = More Blues/Rares/Legendaries/Sets
Item level does affect quality, ilvl63's have a higher threshold for their stats, also the more MF you have the more props your rares can roll = more stats on your items. More MF also means that some of those white and blue ilvl63's you see drop can be rare instead, so you would be picking up more yellow 63's.
OP: I think you're overestimating 100 paragon, it would only be an extra 300 points in your main stat, my WW barb clears A3 pretty easily and I only have ~1300 str, if I was magically maxed on paragon I'd only be at 1600 and there are tons of people passing 2k str already. I really think paragon levels are just going to be a long term aid to MF, and to give people something to do after they beat Diablo.
If you really want an orange I think everyone can agree you absolutely need MF or luck, one of those you can control. You should be able to buy a high MF set that can still do A1 inferno.
An argument can be made that items in inferno get more points on the roll so an ilvl 53 item that drops in inferno will be much better than an ilvl 53 item dropped in hell, so if you want to farm gear to level your alts that seems like a good place to do it.
Your build is almost identical to mine, only differences are I'm running transcendence instead of resolve and hard target on the mantra. Your stats seem really solid, but your dps could be higher, maybe get a weapon around 900-1k dps it will probably boost you up to 23-24k dps and you'll fly through a3.
