I would think that the Miller ghost that the protomolecule uses to interface with Holden is a perfect example of it being changed by the process of outcompeting. The interludes in Cibola burn are a very good example of how despite still functioning the protomolecule has been permanently changed by what it did in Sol system and the humans it assimilated in the process

If i had to guess I would say it likely comes down to how the rice and bean plants fair in low G. If they're eating real rice and fake beans I would think its because the rice is either grown on or near ceres as well as the yeast and fungus substitutes that make up the fake beans, whereas real beans would have to be imported in
While possible I think the relative acceleration and maneuverability of a ship constrained by human passengers compared to a missile means that you can point your drive plume at it but the missile will already be programmed to come in on an arc intended to avoid the plume and with its better maneuverability it will still be able to hit its target effectively.
Would you care to elaborate on why that is? I would say it's easily the best piece of star wars media to come out since Disney took over, and arguably prior to that. It doesn't get overly bogged down in trying to reference or shoehorn in references to other star wars characters like parts of The Mandalorian or the sequel trilogy and it tells a compelling and emotional narrative about the path one man takes to become a dedicated member of the resistance
Right, thats likely why all of the similar cards i could find on a search were triggered abilities. But, if you go through all of the layers in order then the resulting power after 1 pass will stay that value until something else changes the game-state and causes them to recheck since the +X/+0 will have already been applied.
Since you describe it as a constant modifier rather than a triggered ability like all of the similar cards i could find i would say this sounds like a Layers deal. Layers are the order in which constant effects are applied and I personally don't know enough to say for sure, but if you start by looking up MTG Rules Layers that should be a solid starting point.
