One thing that interests me about Angular 2 a bit more than React is the web components support.
With web components finally going native (surprisingly, led by Safari!), will Angular 2 see any big speedups, and will the size of the hello world app come down (200k is kind of huge)?
Also, I've seen a few tutorials on using Angular 2 with Polymer, but it seems complex. Is Google working on making these work together better? Will I be able to create Angular 2 web components and use them with Polymer web components?
I can't answer your other questions competently, but at ng-conf today, in the keynote [1], they announced improvements that drop Angular2 down smaller than 1.x, and that they have plans to continue
