Answer 1

"Manage public bucket policies for this bucket" section need to be unchecked for to introduce "Allow" policies.

But be cautious, unchecking these might enable you to introduce a policy but that policy is a public policy making your bucket public.

Having these checked - You won't be able to introduce "Allow" policies that for this bucket.

You can however introduce "Deny" policies, with these options checked.
