Also in #1 and #2- The Cyanobacteria released released oxygen during photosynthesis. What if there were no cyanobacteria? Would we be alive here?

Also the sensors point somewhat backwards, which results in the blind spot. The fact that it nevertheless sees a lot of colors etc is a simple result of evolution. One gets stuck with strange accidents like that, but then continuous natural selection works to keep optimizing based on that - what you end up with is a very well-optimized cludge.

True. I agree
