Most definitely it`s about how good or bad the person`s insulin sensitivity is. I`m guessing mine is rather high and is why I can do it the way I can. The endomorhps tend to do well on keto, I`m more of a natural ecto...

On a keto diet too much fat per meal will slow fat loss..ie BF being used for fuel. On a competition diet to get extremely lean the fat will need to be removed on alternate days once you reach 4-6 weeks out. For a 200lb BB on a keto diet the average would be about 20-25g per meal and 6 meals.

Is this the number 1 recommended diet for a 5'9 190lb male wanting to get down to 180ish and lean ? Seems pretty solid. Just eat as it says everyday, but for how long ? Until the cut is done ?

Its not the only diet but it is a good one. The thing about all cutting diets is they are not static, they change over time along with increases in cardio etc.
If you just eat whats on the diet from day one and make no other changes youll stagnate after awhile.

I just started this diet... I have lots of energy in the gym which is great... However I feel like I'm having some problems choking down all the food in the day...

I can barely eat the 8oz of chicken and the morning meal of 5 eggs and 4 eggwhites is impossible for me to eat. (I sub a 5 oz can of tuna and 3 eggs)

Do you have to eat all of what is required in the diet?

Let say doing this diet ( or any for that matter ) and your trying to get all 6 meals in , but you just ran out of time Next thing you know it's 5pm and have only had three meals ( 1 whole and 1 shakes ) is it ok to combine 2 meals together to get in the daily calories ? I've always been under the impression that try hard to get in the separate meals , but if needed combining 2 or more is ok .

Also I know some guys that will make up all their food the nigh before and put it ALL in one or two plastic tubs and just pick at it all day until it's done... WHat are your thought on that ?

Doubling up meals is not good. You should be eating roughly every three hours. Dieting is all about being organized and having things prepared. With the addition of shakes as three of the meals there realy is no excuse for not getting in all six meals. Combining meals will mean doubling calories during that time and possibly trace carbs this will not work in your favour.
Meals NEED to be timed properly....not picked at half hazardly that will lead to failure on the diet.
