What is the homotopy theory of categories?
I think the emphasis on presheaf models is due to the difficulty of the general case! This is explained in the introduction of Maltsiniotis's book.

Is there a high-concept explanation for why "simplicial" leads to "homotopy-theoretic"?
You are welcome. I just added some details, I hope this clarifies some points.

Added a few details elaborating on Jacob Lurie's answer, corrected a few typos.; added 2 characters in body

Nerve: Groupoids-> Kan Complexes. Nerve: Bicategories w. adjoints -> ?
There is the paper ugr.es/~bullejos/geometryampl.pdf which works out the comparison between nerves for 2-categories.

Abstract classes of anodyne maps (relative to an interval) in a presheaf category are stable under smash products with monomorphisms?
I remember Maltsiniotis is thanked in the "Préambule" of Cisinski's book: « en particulier, il a amélioré la définition d'extension anodine en dégageant une axiomatique simple ».

Dear Harry: The link to Cisinski's publications page is math.univ-toulouse.fr/~dcisinsk/publications.html. The fifth link points towards a copy of the book: math.univ-toulouse.fr/~dcisinsk/ast.pdf. Anodyne extensions in this general setting were already mentioned in "Théories homotopiques dans les topos" (second link of the publications page) but since I'm not familiar with the theory I don't know whether it was their first occurrence in the literature.
