Q: 1. What is antenna diversity? I'm looking for what I call "true" diversity - multiple receive antennas.

A: "If you glance at the Sennheiser EK 100 receiver, you only see one antenna. However, if you write it off as a non-diversity system, you are mistaken. The EK 100 features a technology called “adaptive diversity,” which utilizes the connected output cable as the second antenna, making it a diversity receiver. By using the ground connection of its output as the link to a second antenna, it provides improved reception and reliability" Taken from "Understanding the Basics of Sennheiser G3 Camera-Mount Wireless Systems" https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/pro-audio/hands-on-review/understanding-the-basics-of-sennheiser-g3-camera-mount-wireless-systems.

Q: 7. Would this work well for live sound plugging the receiver into an active speaker with built in mixer and two mic channels?

A: The Saramonic UwMic9 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System Kit that you asked about can work for live sound, feeding into XLR mic inputs on a mixer or speaker. If you don't strictly need battery power though, a stationary wireless system will usually be more reliable.
