I'm familiar with the evidence for all your claims except for the one about caffeine.

Why limited caffeine?

What I've seen is that caffeine works for some people and it doesn't work for others.

Caffeine may be functionally useful for some people due to their schedule, but any biological benefits would be outweighed by negative side effects if consumed too much(hence limited). Someone who is getting a healthy amount of sleep, eating properly, exercising and also at a healthy weight wouldn't benefit much from a lot of caffeine anyway.
