I will answer the ones I am confident enough in my information to answer.
2) There was no economy anymore, given the PC passive ISK era and everything that broke, so BPOs were wanted and released. Its a good revenue stream for Dust, and it makes players happy if they want them.
Also, some BPOs, like APEX suits can be bought with a combination of ISK and LP, so you don't have to use AUR if you are willing to grind.
3) I don't PC, but from what I understand it is in a rebuilding phase. PC 2.0 is being heavily worked on by CCP, and should include things like Raiding, and lots of other changes, and will hopefully be more fun, more inclusive, and less/non exploitable.
4) No one knows about Legion (that is saying anything anyways). What we do know is that everyone wants a port in some form or fashion, including CCP devs, but as far as we know, Legion has not been axed or green lit.
An interesting note is that CCP gave up copyrights to Legion, which suggests at the very least, if they do port it, Legion will not be the name.
5) IMO CPM1 has been great. They have worked a lot with Rattati and made much progress, though shrinking numbers aren't helping any.
Edit: 1) If those variants you see are proto tanks, know that CCP is developing the other racial tanks, and simply using existing tank structures with new racial skins to differentiate. This is the best they can do at the moment.

Also, when BPOs were reintroduced were they brand new never before seen BPOs? Or were they the same BPOs that had been removed?
A bit of both.
The brought back some of the old ones, but all the APEX suits are new.
They released a slew of new ones (skins) like Marines and Thukkar (sp?) as well.
With many more on the way.
Plus they are going to put in tiercide with power cores, which should reduce the strain on the hardware, and improve performance.
