Based on the different outcomes, I think direct communication offers the best outcome, letters is second, and sending diplomats is worst. With direct communication, you basically get confirmation that Aram is monitoring Eustrin's communications, and it's hinted that Neranda wants you to visit in secret. Letters offer some interesting insights you don't get otherwise, but it ends with a wait and see until more letters come finale. Sending diplomats nets you nothing, really.

For the best outcome with Orcent, you want Intelligence and Discipline 10+ and you want to have had Robin research orcs and selected orc evolution with Balia before giving Orcent his new body.

As for one you didn't mention, the best airship site is the Eastern site, if you don't copy the old guy, do copy the young guy, copy the Eastern guy's partner in the outskirts and talk to Lady Rose before selecting it.

I generally agree with the cause of death of the Chosen. The whatever the divine being gave him was withdrawn, and since Chosen have so little essence of their own, it killed him, much like the orc with Simon's essence. As for what the Chosen really are, my speculation is that they're a larval stage. They are meant to die, which is why they are almost suicidially reckless. We kind of saw this with the Fallen Chosen during the Gathering. I also think it isn't Ivala imbuing them with power, but another divine being pretending to be Ivala. My guess, at this point, is the Mother. Maybe it's part of some plan to exterminate all the non-elven races. Am I right? Hell if I know, but sometimes speculating is fun.
