Somewhat?

You can alter the grain of B&W film by at least two to four times simply by
developer choice, dilution, temperature and technique.  It certainly isn't
"custom", most anyone who uses B&W has their favorite
developer/dilution/temperature and technique that suits their
needs/style/experimentation.  It is VERY critical when talking about film
grain to discuss development AND even exposure (as you mentioned push/pull
too)...since the same film can give such drastically different results...and
more so even if you are using Zone system compensation development.

Not quite true...see below...

There are different E-6 and C-41 processes.  Different chemical AND entirely
different developments, as well as techniques.  E6 can be 3 bath or 6 bath,
and C-41 can be 2 bath or 3 bath.  All of this plays a SIGNIFICANT role on
the shape and size of the dye clouds.

It can be far more significant than you made it out to be.

I don't believe anyone ever suggested that at all...
