Answer 1

checkout wordpress template files docs,

you don't need to use conditionals for separating post type template,

you can simply create archive-{your-post-type}.php file to have different archive template for each post type.

for taxonomy;

taxonomy-{taxonomy}-{term}.php
taxonomy-{taxonomy}.php
tag-{slug}.php
tag-{id}.php
category-{slug}.php
category-{ID}.php

Additionally, if your theme supports standard loop hooks like Genesis Framework, You can use conditional to build custom loop depending on Post type.

lets say you have custom post types (CTP).. cpt1, cpt2, cpt3 ...

then you just need to create archive templates files respectively like that archive-cpt1.php , archive-cpt2.php , archive-cpt3.php .
