I’m Germany, that’s the way it works, once you choose to go private you cannot opt back into the public system. People sometimes do it if they don’t plan to stay in Germany though, usually if they are immigrants.

Depends on the age. Above 55 it's indeed quite difficult, under that you can switch back if you fall back into the required status (i.e. take a job with a salary under the limit)
