To the tie thing, whenever someone would ask me why I’m wearing a hat I would just answer that the Rebbe did.
The thing is that Lubavitcher bachurim in Yeshiva feel it’s too much of a baalabatishe thing for them to wear a tie.
It’s so much as to say a minhag. For example I have a friend who to him there isn’t really any reason to wear a tie.( sometime he does, sometimes he doesn’t)
However by his Bar Mitzvah obviously he wore a tie
Hope that helps
