What does soft-close mean on these drawers?

The soft-close mechanism acts over the final part of the closing travel, drawing the drawer in smoothly rather than merely adding resistance over its entire journey.

It makes closing rather less agricultural, but it is separate from the lock.

Can I remove the drawer tray completely without unmounting the chassis? Can I accidentally pull the drawer right off its runners? Does the soft-close mechanism actually lock the drawer shut? Are all of the rack drawers keyed alike?
