Welcome to FlyerTalk! No, no seats are embargoed; you have access to any Economy Plus seat.

Nobody would buy it if it were middle-seat only.
You may choose any seat you like.

That, I have no idea, but I doubt it, given that passengers could avail themselves of any number of E+ seats for upcoming travel during those 24 hours.
If this seems like too good of a deal to be true -- remember that UA gives Economy Plus at booking away for free to higher-level Premier members in its program. The subscription is really only useful for someone's first year of travel with UA, or for people who travel enough to break even on the cost as compared to individual E+ seat purchases, but not enough to achieve the necessary Premier status (Silver = traveler +1 companion at check-in; Gold = traveler + 1 companion at booking; Platinum and higher = traveler + 8 companions at booking).
Note that Basic Economy flights are excluded -- you have to purchase regular economy tickets to be able to use the subscription.
