It's stupid, because you have to give a set amount based on the long acting part. Therefore you can't change the fast acting part and that means you must eat enough carbs to cover and no more, no less.

Your control will greatly improve on 2+ a day shots instead of a mixed insulin.

I take mine off for showers only. You cannot take it off while sleeping as the max recommended time off is 1 hour.
