Couple questions regarding nutrition and bodybuilding

1). Does banking weekly calories actually work(ie. Big deficit on monday-friday and cheat days saturday and sunday)? If so can monthly?
Is it like you lose extra fat on the deficit days but gain fat on the cheat days but overall they balance out and make you even(this is coming from the statement that humans are always burning or storing fat)

2). Should you eat less on a non training day(both non cardio and non weights)

3). Some say that fat teens should lose fat first and then bulk so that their cutting phase may be easier but also so that more excess calories goes for lean growth. Others say that people aged 16ish should never cut or count calories despite being fat.
Which is true? I can see how both could be true but I wanted to see your opinions

4). How long or how many sets/reps does it take for the next time you eat food to be used for muscle? So your typical gym workout is around 24 sets in total and the postworkout food is used for muscle. So how about 1 set? Would the muscles and that glut4 receptors thing be activated and would the food be used for muscle?

5). Let's say you miss a workout, for example leg day and your typical routine goes like this: monday and thursday is push, tuesday and friday are pull and wednesday and Saturday is leg. So if you miss saturday due to sickness or busy schedules, should you try and make it up the next time you workout or dont stress it?

6). Why is it that despite muscle growth/loss not happening in a matter of days, that for example if I did legs Wednesday then my quads calves etc.. would look defined and large and muscular on the day after and look small and untoned on the day before my next leg workout and the day of my leg workout(before the workout itself)?
Is it just the "pump"

7). Is it possible in any circumstance to gain fat and lose muscle when reguaraly going to the gym? I was considering maybe someone who works out for around 2 hours and does intermittent fasting?(because cortisol stores fat and overtraining aka over 1 hour caused muscles to be used for fuel or something, but I'm not entirely sure)

8). What should the ratio of Squat deadlift bench and overhead press be? In other words should you squat 2x your bench press? Etc...
