Q: How thin a workpiece can this handle?

The low profile lets stock as thin as 1/4" be worked or planed without obstruction, since each rail projects just 0.22" above the benchtop.

Q: What post sizes are available?

Posts are sized to fit either 3/4" or 20mm diameter dog holes, so you can match your bench's existing hole spacing.

Not necessarily; for tasks applying force in one direction, such as planing, a single stop works with no additional clamping.

Yes, placing two planing stops perpendicular to each other captures two edges of the workpiece, preventing it from rotating during work.

It depends on the stop's length: up to 9" apart on the 9 3/4" stop, 16 3/4" on the 17 1/2" stop, or 24 1/2" on the 25 1/4" stop.
