Nothing, because 3.0147-2.9597=0.0227. There is nothing "physically
impossible" here.

(i.e. this means that your O atom is at the edge of the cell; initially
it was a bit left from the edge and after relaxation it is at the right
of the edge)

Thsi warning is due to missing whitespace:

K_POINTS{automatic}

should be 

K_POINTS {automatic}
