“comment ça se fait” vs “pourquoi”

Is there any difference in the meaning or tone of “comment ça se fait” compared to “pourquoi”? In English, we sometimes say “how come” rather than “why” to avoid sounding curt or accusatory. Thank you!

Y with people

Less commonly, à + indirect object may be replaced with the adverbial pronoun y:

Il y pense. He’s thinking about her. J’y fais référence. I’m referring to them. On s’y habitue. We’re getting used to him.Found these here : https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/indirect-objects-2/ So y seems to be able to replace people?

she had to face the facts

About 'face the facts', is it also correct to translate it as ' faire face aux réalités'.

I think 'faire face à ' is a very common expression.

Some of these sentences are a bit silly as in order to know whether a particular sentence requires a direct or an indirect object pronoun, I need to see more of the sentence. I'm getting marked down for things I can't see until the next slide.
