comment Alternating sum of multiple zetas equals always 1?
The proof doesn't generalize to non-integer arguments since $z_m = x^{m-1}y$ only makes sense if $m$ is a natural number. But maybe the result for natural $m$ implies the result for non-integer $m$ by the identity theorem. If $m \mapsto 1-A_m$ is holomorphic on a connected open subset $D$ of the Riemann sphere containing $\mathbb N$ and the point at infinity, then since $\mathbb N$ has the point at infinity as limit point, the identity theorem forces $1-A_m$ to vanish on all of $D$.

comment $f \in K[X]$ of degree $n$ with Galois group $S_n$, why are there no non-trivial intermediate fields of $K \subset K(a)$ with $a$ a root of $f$?
You're right, that case needs to be taken care of separately. See the edit in my answer.

comment Inverting formal power series wrt. composition
Actually, I couldn't find a reference for that variant of Hensel's lemma. However, lemma 10.5 here (people.ds.cam.ac.uk/eb525/ec-notes.pdf) comes very close and I think the proof generalizes to the variant given above. Alternatively, look at lemma 11.6. This is exactly the statement you want to prove, and the proof actually goes along the lines of Hensel's lemma, by constructing successive approximations of the inverse power series. Integrality of $A$ is only needed for the uniqueness in Hensel's lemma, but since we didn't use that, it can probably be dropped.
