You are mistaken.
If the hero oesn't know the feat (ie, it's not on the character sheet), then he has the same Improv. penalty as an initiate when tries to do it.

Initiates get penalized every time they use the magic because they don't know *any* feats; Devotees get penalized if they don't know the specific feat (they use listed feats at full Affinity rating.

Yes.
