3) Mhi Khetto's Ampitheater is specifically designed for seasonal and special events, so that would only create more clutter when those events are running.
2) Since I haven't played 1.0, this is only based on the footage from others I have watched, but the original side room in Limsa doesn't seem to have the height enough for the 2.0 Aetheryte design (much larger than the ones in 1.0), and since Limsa map are buildings on top of small islands which makes it extremely hard to adjust the interior to fit the Aetheryte.
Also I believe the other reason would be many players didn't like how Limsa's 1.0 Aetheryte was so far from almost everything else.

3) I would say they could have the regular NPC performance be cancelled during seasonal events if the performance thingy were possible in the first place, but who knows, maybe it is a sign that they want players to do performance player event in there instead of in Limsa blocking the passage.
