VOIP & Citrix probably does not use much bandwidth so if you Traffic Prioritize them it should not negatively impact other users. Identify the ports they're using, then you can manually add them for the devices in Traffic Prioritization.
You don't need to allocate bandwidth for Anti-Bufferbloat to work, as long as you've input the speed of your connection then set Anti-Bufferbloat to Always & 70% for both download & upload to start with then it'll be fine. Yes that should prevent videos that buffer due to local congestion.
By default it will give any excess bandwidth to devices that need it and you can allocate if needed, though I should think you could probably leave this alone as long as Anti-Bufferbloat is enabled.
No not specifically and I would not recommend prioritizing high bandwidth applications.
Sort of, you can set up Anti-Bufferbloat to only throttle when high priority traffic is detected, otherwise it will act as though it's at 100%. Also the Geo-Filter has profiles to set it up for whatever game you want to play.
