I second that

Does it matter if the casting rod that I want to buy is meant for 6lb line and the reel that I am putting on it is meant for 12lb line?
That rating does not mean you can't use 6lb line. It's a spool capacity rating.its not a rating of what it can cast. I use a Lews Tournament Pro to cast 1/10 oz Ned rigs on 8lb line.

Other reels same concept as Lew's SP?
Sportsmans Outfitters has it for 159$ get the Lew's.

Lews reels

Lews BB1 PRO vs Super Duty Wide Spool for deep cranks?
Smaller and more compact. 6 pin 27 position externally adjustable centrifugal brakes.l would also get the 6.8 to 1.i think it looks nicer. They are all good reels it's just my preference.

I just tested 12 feet of Sufix advance mono with a scale. Pulled to 8lbs and it stretched 9.25 inches . at 9.6 lbs it broke at knot before I could measure it.- Line Stretch Test - 18 Types/brands
Anyway possible you could test Sufix Advance Mono ? I'd really like to see how it compares under your test. I know it has the least stretch of any non braid I've used.- Techniques Where FC Main Line Is A Must ?
None- Looking at a new reel Can't find much info on it
39 lbs of drag on a spinning reel with a graphite frame. That's laughable on so many levels. If it's true it's a recipe for snapping a neck.- Using braid with a leader on micro-guide rods
