theres only one note that is different to the minor scale so it's not that special.

Melodic Major = Major Scale
The Harmonic Minor isn't as popular because it's got an augmented second in it, rather than all semi-tones and whole tones. Same with the Harmonic Major.

pretty much, unless you're talking about a Symmetric scale (like the diminished or whole tone scales) which has limited transposition.
Practice techniques like "playing scales" has nothing to do with the actual theory. Those are simple fingering and technique exercises that help you learn key centers. In music theory, there's a lot more to it.

hmm..
so whether or not it has a set of modes associated with it determines whether or not it is a scale?
