1) Correct.  Nym ignores the explosion, damage, etc from bombs going off near him, and doesn't trigger mines he moves over.

2) Red maneuvers, obstacles, and stress already don't affect bombs that are dropped when you reveal your maneuver.  Genius just moves the time window to after the maneuver.  Even without Genius, if you were already on an obstacle, stressed, covered in crits, and you revealed a red maneuver, you could still drop your bomb (the only rule is "when you reveal your maneuver". Genius lets you drop it after your maneuver.

It gets better than that, actually, since presumably Genius gets around the "reveal your maneuver" part of the bomb rule (at least according to most interpretations, though there is some discussion on this in the FFG forums). After performing any maneuver, including Daredevil, an ion'd forward 1 maneuver, etc, you can drop the bomb. This includes even if you didn't reveal a maneuver dial because you're ioned; genius' wording gets around that. It just doesn't work on non-maneuver repositions like barrel roll and boost, tractor beam, etc.

I hope that helps!
