How does the cinch open? I just received it and find it very cumbersome and laborious.

Don't try to force it open like a regular cinch bag. Rather, pull the plastic tab straight back away from the frame. There is a good video on YouTube by Pack Hacker Reviews that shows all the details and functions, must-watch if you are having issues.

Is this backpack packable without taking up a lot of space? Would it lie flat in a 40L backpack?

Yes it would lay flat or fold into a small area

is this item waterproof or water resistant?

No, you would need a pack cover to keep water out. I would say it is water resistant to a point but once it gets past that point it will soak through.
