Your opponent knows nothing about the errata he-he-he
If donate happened when you buy it, what would be a tactical reason for buying it during a possession?
Trashing everything and leaving your opponent with no hand. (He only gets the trashed cards back after drawing his hand)
That's the obvious thing, but there are several more.

Opponent bought Inn, shuffling all his actions before the reshuffle with the deck of 100 cards, now you won't give him such pleasure

You want to trash all your opponent's Rocks for that sweet Silver. And maybe Sir Vander.
You are forgetting one thing.

That still works with Donate happening between turns though, except you allow the opponent to trash cards in process.

There is a kingdom without cantrips, villages, throne room (and all the variants), no cards (or Events) giving tokens, no travellers, no Black Market, no cultists, literally NO cards giving +1 action. How can you make a turn, having played three different actions during the turn?

Okay, another one: you take a normal turn and in the buy phase after you played all the treasures, you have $65 and 30 buys and no debt. But no matter how hard you want, you can't buy any cards (No Mission). Why?

You got 3. (I consider the first 3 the same - no more cards in deck.)

1. -1 Coin Token. (From Ball, Bridge Troll)
2. No cards in deck or discard.
3. -1 Card token (from Raid, Relic)

Is that all 5 solutions, or does that count as only three?

I considered playing Poor House first, but that doesn't send you into negative. Debt doesn't prevent you from gaining coins. Hmm.

You can, however, play a Crown with Storyteller's ability and Crown a Poor House to remove the coin you got from Storyteller.

At the start of your turn, you call a Ratcatcher and trash a Fortress in your hand. Why?

There are three solutions. Remember that trashing a Fortress and putting it into your hand is not regaining it, so there are no Watchtower/Trader tricks.

1) Market Square
2) You need this Ratcatcher in your deck next turn (It's the only cantrip and you can take additional +actions from it in some way)
3) You need more actions in play for Conspirator
4) Tomb

Conspirator doesn't work, but Horn of Plenty, Peddler, and Pilgrimage do.

There's nothing else in your hand that you'd rather trash and you want Ratcatcher in play for Peddler or Horn of Plenty or whatever other reason.

There's nothing else in your hand that you'd rather trash and you want to trigger an on-trash effect like Market Square or Tomb.

You're possessed with a hand of all Fortresses.

3 doesn't work, but it could be for Horn of Plenty or Pilgrimage or whichever landmark gives you points for buying a card that you have in play.
