I was about to post that leaf width is genetic, not environmental, but a reread shows me that Jack addressed that point.
The thing I've not seen anyone address was from your post #2 ... about the droplet of sap with a bug in it. I do think the scars you've shown us are bug bites and not a nutrition issue. Even your "yellowed" plant does not show the telltales of Mg deficiency ... the color is too even. It could be that the pheno of that plant runs paler.
So I say insect damage. Keep an eye out for the pest in question ... it or its teeming brood might return! Have a management strategy handy in case it is a thrip or similar sap robber.
My only tiny suggestion (to amplify Jack's already excellent advice imo) would be to keep a dummy pot with your dry soil mix on hand. that way you can get a feel for just how wet or dry a growing pot is. cn
