I've officiated football for over 30 years, now in my 26th on the college level. I've worked NCAA playoffs at the Division II and III level. In addition, I've coached at the scholastic level and have been an educator for over 35 years. I have no interest whatsoever in being an NFL official! Ever!
A RB stiff arming usually is pushing away the defender. It is not the upward stretching/straining motion that you're talking about with OLs. If a RB were to grab the facemask and twist or hold onto it, then you have a foul.
Yes. Within limits. He cannot be moving forward at the time of the snap. Everyone must have come to a complete stop before he starts to move sideways. But, the basic answer is, yes.
You gave the answer: "On a pass two feet are required". And that's two different feet, otherwise it's one foot.
Intentionally kicking the ball is a foul. If a receiver kicks the ball into his own endzone we have a foul and safety.

Is there THAT much difference in quality between the fish served at mid-range vs high-end places?

That's a TD for B. A2 gets disqualified for the swing - contact isn't necessary. Enforce penalty on the try.
There are several scenarios to what you ask. If a ball carrier's helmet comes off, the play is dead immediately. That's a safety issue. If anyone else's helmet comes off, they have an opportunity to step away and not participate; the play goes on. If a player's helmet comes off and he is already engaged (making a play on the runner, in process of making a block) he may continue. If a player's helmet comes off, he may not continue to play (beyond a step or two) or it is a personal foul.
If it's during the play, it is a live ball foul. The penalty is enforced from the previous spot. No score.
