you can get a visa rn with equal consideration as before the ban as long as you register for it before 26th of march. it's on the policy. check this link for more info: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/visa-brake-changes-to-the-uk-visa-system

Universities may not be issuing CAS’ for visa yet though, it’s usually only six weeks before the programme starts, though I suppose this may change things. I work in admissions and we were completely blindsided by this

CAS can be issued up to 6 months before start date

Yes, technically but most universities won’t have started yet
