We need to rethink employee compensation
Why can't the options have a strike price of 0.10 in option 2?
(I assume I should look up "409a", the magic keyword to answer my questions?)

Yes once upon a time companies could set whatever they wanted for the strike price but not anymore. I think there might still be a way to do it with complex bookkeeping but AFAIK everyone just uses the 409a value.
