I am not sure what the CY_USING_HAL is for, but I will try to understand this details later on during the development

This means that the the code checks if the project uses the Hardware Abstraction Layer.

If yes, the structures used in the HAL library will be initiated and used.

In the folder where you found the cycfg_pins.* file, there is also a readme.

It details the define:

CY_USING_HAL - This define, enabled by default, specifies that the HAL is intended to be used by the application. This will cause the BSP to include the applicable header file and to initialize the system level drivers.

retarget_io is interesting for examples.

Once you want to go very low energy and have a UART that can listen to input while sleeping, check the API Cy_SCB_UART_DeepSleepCallback().
