Yet I do tend to think they have been hastened to a much quicker ending than they were intending.

Only if the BBC has told Moffat and Gatiss that they can't produce any more episodes.

Or if the actors have told them they are not available.

True.  That, too.  Hopefully, Cumberbatch and Freeman's schedules (and the schedules of the supporting actors) are not now so busy that they will never be available to return to the Sherlock series!

For me this is the issue.
I think they have told Mark and Steven they are not available for a long time.

Are they already now sure that they are not available in 2020? Do they really plan  so in advance?

Well they've known before there would be 3 years between series, so I am assuming they know their schedules now.
Why else all the debate about it possibly being the last series?
It's obviously something quite different this time, as in thy cannot see where their schedules will cross.

Why could not they plan Sherlock and  only then fill the gaps by other work ?

We wish.
They have to decide for themselves.

I wasn't sure where to put this, but it has been niggling at me!  Eurus repeats Sherlock's line "We had chips" when she reveals herself to John.  That lets John (and us) know that "Faith" was one of Eurus' disguises.  But how did she know John had heard that line from Sherlock?  Is she so perceptive that she knew that Sherlock would say that, with John present, when talking about Faith? 

Or is this really just for the audience, rather than John?  I don't mind if it is.  Just wondering if I should be thinking more about how she knew.

Or else the government has certain people under surveillance!

Or she is still in contact with CS and he reffered her before he was arrested. But I still have no idea why would they cooperate. Only  that she wants Sherlock dead but does not want to kill him herself, is looking for some bad guy who will do it some special way (otherwise she  might have  hired a standard assasin with gun).

Maybe it was something as simple as a hidden microphone. I'm not sure where or on whom, but it's possible.

Maybe it's because they're siblings (maybe twins?) and it just shows that they just think really alike?

She does know him very well.  I felt that her version of Faith was tailored to him.  He would not have been drawn to the real faith in the same way.  So even if they were separated in childhood (which I suspect - Sian has a distinctive face, and I really can't believe that Sherlock wouldn't recognise her if he'd been around her as an adult), she seems to understand him and be able to manipulate him expertly.  I suppose being a sibling would play into that.
