A Sixth Platonic solid?
[1] Wouldn't gluing a tetrahedron's one triangle to a another tetrahedron's triangle make a platonic solid ? See the picture to see clearly what I mean. Tetrahedron stacked one on each makes an another solid with $6$ faces, $5$ vertices and $9$ edges.
No: two of the vertices would have three edges while three vertices would have four edges
You are describing a triangular bipyramid
