Perhaps it is allegory of the Human Race. And the "us" that is mentioned is the Superior Race who occupy Heaven. Heaven knows everything that happens on Earth. People do not. "You will positively die" means extinction. They know, but they want it not to happen. Why? Because it took a long time to "birth" humans and because The God loves us. The Bible is for non-extermination. You can say it has caused extermination, but you don't know that, you are making it up.
The Trees. The question should be answered "why did they not touch the Tree of Life?". Because it's the same tree. That is the only way I know how to answer it.
Why are they different? Because viewing the tree for life gives life. But viewing the tree for profit gives death. At the beginning there was not much to profit except to know. To know is something that belongs to Heaven. To know is not off limits but it is to be learned over time and by obedience and not by stealing.
