Both questions have the same answer: logically, G'Kar knows that
his father is dead. He saw him die. So whoever this was, wasn't his
father, even though he was appearing that way. Or was a spirit, and
either way, he would've been sufficiently apprehensive about it not to
go blithely around embracing something he didn't understand. I sure as
hell wouldn't.

Well, G'Kar doubtless *thinks* he saw a spirit, possibly the
spirit of his father, possibly something else...revealed later as
G'Lan, of course, taking that image in order to give him a revelation.
