I have read many posts, some say Slowhax is a standalone k11 exploit and others say that it's a dsiware downgrade with only 3ds. Can someone explain that to me, please?

svcWaitSynchronizationN does not decrement the references to valid handles in an array before returning an error when it encounters an invalid handle. This allows one to (slowly) overflow the reference count for a handle object to zero.
ARM11 kernel-mode code execution
It's a k11 exploit, and you need one of those to install DSiWarehax, which in turn lets you downgrade.
 
An ARM11 kernel exploit can have a couple uses, but the primary one people are concerned about is the ability to do DSiWare hax with one 3DS.
As it stands, you need a pre-hacked 3DS to inject a save, then transfer it to another for hacking; such an exploit would allow you to do it without that.

Very time saving and beneficial
