Why is a just a rather odd wh -word. Its distribution is very limited -- it can only have the word reason as its antecedent, and since it's never the subject it's always deletable. Consequently it behaves strangely, as you and others point out.
9 1) Please tell me why is it like that. [grammatically incorrect unless the punctuation is changed. Please tell me: Why is it like that?

As far as I know it's ungrammatical to use the verb form "seeing" when perception is involved - do you mean specifically the gerund seeing, or any use of to see? Either way, it sounds wrong to this US English speaker: we use "seeing" to mean "perceiving" all the time.

However, I'm seeing two interpretations which are perfectly acceptable in correct English. These may not match the originally intent in the argument, but they're acceptable. Firstly, "see" can mean to determine something. "I'll see who's at the door, and I'll see whether they're here about the car." Now consider the following exchange:
It felt really nice seeing all the things fall together into place. Vs It felt really nice to see all the things fall together into place. Is this just an infinite- gerund thing? Or are the mean...

I’m not seeing anything now would be ok for Sarah to say; the present progressive, and more importantly, the now convey the contrast between the new and the previous states of affairs. For Alex, the simple I don’t see anything would be the most natural for (A). In any event, I think it less likely that Alex would use the now at all, because the now seems to suggest a contrast about what he ...
I look forward to seeing you. I look forward to meeting you. I'm looking forward to dogsledding this winter. Each of these sentences are acceptable, and use a gerund (verbal noun).

So we're certainly seeing, by some accounts, up to almost 100 pounds of cardboard per household per year set out at the curb.
