About mega rich guy
In the container in the docks.
Is this a reference to something or someone? An easter egg? Looks very out of place and surreal.

It's a joke about the ultra-rich and the laws of physics not applying to them because they are so removed from ordinary existence. Also googling brought up a reference to Madagascar 3, so it might be a bizarre pop culture reference.

He is not, he is talking about the locked container you can lower a bit before Evrart.

Kim doesn't see it that way, so it's up to you whether he's really a physical anomaly. I see this as less a of a copout and more of a "choose-your-own-genre" type of thing.

Well if you look at the dev's description of the city and of its "contrasts," it can probably be understood as some sort of commentary on human-trafficking, considering oftentimes people are transported overseas in large containers, oftentimes not being provided food or water for the duration and occassionally turning up as a bunch of corpses in a container no one knew was there in the first place. Just a guess though.

When talking to him, there's a passive check that requires 20 Visual Calculus. Did anyone manage to pass it? What does it unlock?

Super late to the party but passing the 20 Visual Calculus does nothing, it just hides the failure passive text.
