Yes.

You create a magical restraint to hold a creature that you can see within range.

While imprisoned, the target doesn’t need to breathe, eat, or drink, and it doesn’t age.

Until the spell ends, the target is also affected by one of the following effects of your choice:

The secondary effects in the case of immunity to Unconscious just wouldn't do much but the target is still under a magical restraint.

Now technically the magical restraint that holds the creature doesn't mechanically cause any particular condition. So depending on the definition of "held", this may or may not be a problem.

However it is worth noting that the spell also says the condition to end the spell must be something the DM agrees to AND is likely to happen in the next decade. So it won't be a cakewalk to be suddenly immune to aging.

You don’t have to specify. It says "You can specify" so you are free not to specify anything.

Beyond that, yes. I'd say even by RAW the slumber is supposed to be the restraint and no other restraint is listed so if not being put to sleep is enough to still get benefits you’re good to go.

It used to.

During the casting of the spell, in any of its versions, you can specify a condition that will cause the spell to end and release the target.

But the 2024 version says:

When you cast the spell, specify a trigger that will end it.

Ah I see. I was talking 2014, but yeah the means you have to make use of some other loopholes.

I was also talking about it when I made the post you made this meme from. But not intentionally. I didn't know the changes.
