2) from what I understand, structural qualities such as cortical
thickness etc are measured in the individual's real space. However then,
what I do not understand is the file structure of the HCP data. The
structural measures such as cortical thickness, curvature and myelin
maps etc live in the MNINonLinear/fsaverage_LR32k rather than in the
'native space' directory. Can anyone shed light on this?

It was perhaps not the best choice to put these measures inside the MNINonLinear folder, but for 
compatibility, that is where they will remain for now.  They were computed in "T1w" space 
("native volume space", not to be confused with "native mesh", which is an unrelated 
distinction).

However, the myelin measure is based on a combination of imaging contrasts, and 
is not sensitive to changes in brain size, so it doesn't quite fit in the same 
class as curvature and thickness, which are measures of the cortical 
coordinates themselves.

Tim
