Why not just say how old each image is, like with a color overlay? “Zoom past this level and you will be looking at 400 days ago” etc

It does - imagery is dated to the nearest month from level ~12 and higher. (See top left on desktop, bottom on mobile)

From which year are the cloudless images shown when deselecting the live/daily layers? There seems to be one per month but all from the same year, right?

It's interesting to see how winter is taking hold of the planet - but a little bit disappointing that I cannot compare snowy areas between different years.

So live/daily is for zoom levels 0-9, and the archive goes back 20 years to 2000. Zoom in, and older imagery dates will vary based on the location.
