Not sure why that should be the case.
(1) Seating may begin at ground level, or it could begin higher up. West Ham have that choice.
(2) An athletics track is fairly standardised, and the seating is not going to be any further away from the track than most big athletics stadia. Presumably the same would therefore apply to previous athletics stadia converted to mixed use.
(3) What is the angle? How does it compare to most recent football stadia, e.g. Wembley or Emirates?
1) not in their plans they don't. They are keeping the lower bowl and removing the upper temporary structure. Therefore seating starts at ground level.
2) Further than any non-track pitch. I think you'll fine that large event stadia also have more space around the track for media and circulation. This is no Crystal Palace remodel they're designing!
3) google it, I'm too tired to explain
