No benefit, it's required by code. Any food handling equipment must have an indirect waste with an air gap.
You must maintain a 2" air gap from indirect waste to sewer waste. If sewage back up was the issue, I would recomend "directly" piping the 2 inch drain to the main sewage with a 2 inch normally closed backwater valve. If you piped an indirect drain you would not be protected from sewer back up. I assume this is for a sink perhaps in a basement?
Depends on the "Sink" waste if it is a 2" sink waste a 3/8 cable will be fine.
Best way is to snake (rod) the line through the sink waste as the waste flowing from the sink into the tub means the stoppage is AFTER the tub and basin waste as water seeks its own level
The direct object of the verb 'found' is 'a pail and some soap'.The indirect object of the verb 'found' is the prepositional phrase 'under the sink'.

To effectively remove food waste using a sink erator, follow these steps: Scrape excess food into the sink erator before running it. Run cold water while using the sink erator to help flush the waste down the drain. Avoid putting large or hard items into the sink erator to prevent clogs. Use the sink erator regularly to prevent odors and buildup.
Liquid wastes should not be dumped down a sink because they can cause back-up. This liquid waste could also break pipes.
Yes. It fits, no problems.
Yes, you can.

the difference are as follows. the direct water supply comes from the outside main water supply directly into the sink. the indirect water supply has mains cold water collected in a cistern which in turn supplies water to the sink.
