 > * Do posts from other sites ''also'' show on said author archives?

 Never.

 > * If a user is a member of multiple sites and you reassign their posts,
 what is the current behavior? Do they get reassigned to a single user and
 a single site?

 Posts can only have a single author. Posts never get moved between sites.

 > Regardless, if I have multiple sites in MU, I don't necessarily want
 users from one site showing on other sites' author archives.

 The idea is that you'll get a 404 anyway, since under normal conditions,
 you won't have any posts assigned to users that have no role on the
 current site. I.e. we should focus on fixing #15855
