Does anyone genuinely like this? I was relieved to see it can be turned off.

One thing I noticed is that the inactive window gets a shadow on it. I wonder if that can also be turned off.

The gap acts as a divider to resize the side-by-side windows at once. Does that work if you turn it off?

Yes every other OS allows you to resize windows just fine without the divider.

Probably the same people who introduced the gap between the menu bar and the actual menus.
