1) Why Gain @ Node X must be minimized ?
2) Why Ax is equal to ratio of two gm ?

First, you should ask your classmates, or teaching assistant. A real life discussion would help you more.

To be short:
-Miller effect
-because the impedance at node X is 1/gm. You could easily get this if you write the simplest small signal circuit equations.

Thanks.

I have not thought of the Miller effect if I have not asked here.
