These all seem like good, reasonable questions. Not all psychoanalysts have the same policies or approaches to the treatment frame--my therapist is an analyst and doesn't have me pay for missed or canceled sessions, seems to have a very case-by-case approach to between session contact, and has patients he sees once a week.

And sometimes the way people answer questions gives you just as much information as the answers themselves. I'd personally be much more drawn to a therapist who could explain the reasoning behind their policies and approach in a way that resonated with me, as opposed to someone who just said they do things a certain way because it's the traditional psychoanalytic way to handle it. Even if their reasoning was very grounded in traditional psychoanalytic thinking, the explanation could still be valuable information about how they think.

I do wonder about continuing with your current therapist though. It's not a bad idea to be looking at options but it seems plausible that over time you could still work through the negative transference at once a week, just more slowly. Either way, I hope it works out.
