I think I remember the human chaff (Krilin, Yamcha) asking if Shenron could destroy Vegeta and Nappa's ships while they were still en route to Earth.

I also remember that, after beating up Cell, Krilin wanted 18 to become human, but that was "beyond" what Shenron could do.

Second wish was granted I think? That's why they have a kid, no?

No idea, I'd have to check a wiki or something

The English translation is wrong, Gero, 17 and 18 are cyborgs, not androids.

They're originally humans, who were turned into robots, while 16 and 19 were fully robotic androids (and use a different word in Japanese, I believe?)

So 18 must've had her babymaker intact, maybe that's where Gero put the bomb that Krillin wished away.
