I was doing my best to helpfully answer your question, and addressing the species you talked about.

You're welcome.
Well, you didn't really fully answer my question, which was, is any of this a deal-breaker for the idea that it may be an elm? (I know #2 is not, but it still leaves (pun not intended) #1 and #3.)

1) has bark almost like a (eastern white) cedar's;
2) the leaves are similar to yellow birch and (Virginia) ironwood;
3) it did sprout leaves (not many, but a few) from a mature trunk. (Some trees do this - silver maple loves to, for example - and some don't)

If you do this then yeah: thanks!
