Where was original chief engineer Tada-san during the development of Gen 2? Doesn’t seem to have been at all involved?

I believe he had moved on to other projects by that point.

See the attached "At a glance" file for trims and options.
As for accessories, check the "STI accessories" thread?

According to @ichitaka05 none of the original Toyota team was involved.

Oh, he's building the next V6 Accord?

I'm definitely seeing the advantages of the new over the old, but I'm not seeing them as compelling advantages.

I thought it was widely known that Tada was busy with the supra development.

He was done that task years ago now. Pretty sure that ichi said he is mostly retired now.

Correct, Tada-san wasn't involved & none of 1st gen engineers are involved in new 86/BRZ (they're retired, quit/fired, or moved to different projects). Technically, new gen spearhead is Subaru team. Of course Toyota/GR engineers are there, but a lot of things are decided by Subaru.
