A:AnswerThis is what I did, and it worked for me. That said, I had to connect it to wifi for a while before the sim card activated. It did not activate until I was fully through the setup and starting updating all the apps (on wifi).
A:AnswerNo. The terms state that the discount applies to activation of a new account or a new line. Purchasing the phone as an upgrade on an existing line will not receive a discount.
A:AnswerPer gsmarena.com, there is no headphone jack. The headphone jacks are getting pretty rare nowadays.

Google did sell a USB-C to headphone dongle, but I don't see it on their store now. Best Buy sells Samsung and Apple USB-C to audio dongles for about $10, but I don't know if they are compatible with the Pixel.
A:AnswerApparently not,
"You cannot download FaceTime on Android devices. It is an Apple application that is not available on the Microsoft Store or the Google Store. Users can't start FaceTime from Android to iPhone devices. But, you can join someone else's video call from a phone that does not use iOS."

A:AnswerYes, we have a Pixel 7a and a Pixel 8a on Consumer Cellular. Both are using e-Sim instead of a traditional Sim card. We were able to complete the setup before we left Best Buy.

A:AnswerThey are usually new devices that were returned for some reason. We bought a "good" condition Pixel phone years ago and it was perfect except for one or two very, very light scratches near the upper left corner of the screen. That being said, I would want to see the device before I accepted it.
A:AnswerStraightTalk seems to run on Verizon's network. I have had multiple PIxel phones (3a XL and 7 Pro) on Verizon that have worked well, so I would expect the Pixel 8a to work fine on Verizon's network. I would choose the physical SIM over the eSIM if there is a choice, but that's just me.
