Doesn’t have to be ‘market’ but should cross the spread (i.e. be a taker). But yes, the real test is whether the liquidity is still there when you go to take it. Some exchanges give a ‘last look’ (option to cancel) to their market makers before matching their resting orders.

No. Last look is an option to have the final decision on order execution. FoK is an order that requires a complete and immediate fill.
