3: I have a (semi-) scientific explanation for why Logan's senses are so good. There is the obvious reason, that he's supposed to be wolf-like and therefore would have a stronger sense of smell and sound. But i have an additional reason. Given that he has a strong healing factor, it would be reasonable to assume that he can heal things inside of his body as well as outside. Meaning that unlike regular people, his hair cells (those microscopic fibers inside the Organ of Corti) would either never die off, or if they did, would be quickly replaced be new ones. This would mean that after his mutation had been unlocked, Logan would have regained the full range of his hearing abilities. This explination could also applied to his sense of sight, smell, etc. This idea is even used in DoFP with regards to Logan's consciousness, so i think it makes for a very good rationalization.

Also, given that turning one's entire skeleton into solid metal would present alot of problems given how the human body works (read these articles for clarification  ), i would submit that he is probably not 100% coated in that stuff. His organs (such as his bones and the aforementioned Organ of Corti) would need a certain amount of "breathing room" in order to function properly. I would assume that certain parts of his anatomy were not covered during the procedure.

I even have a possible explanation for why his metal claws are smooth and have ridges on the end of them, while his bone claws are chipped and chunky like a stick. My take on this is that his claws were most likely sharpened or cut that way before the operation to make them more effective weapons. Perhaps it could be worked in that it had something to do with the fact that they were still growing back after Victor broke them.
