Are there any changes made in the part that comes into the planner from Project Web? Today, it is hard to avoid failure when the duration of the task is, for example, 2 weeks but the task itself will only take a few hours. It will be possible to 'lock' the duration and effort time to provide extra security to prevent damaging the whole project and timeline.

We will probably need a little more detail here Anna. Project for the web does support different task types (at the Project level) of fixed effort, fixed duration (default) and fixed units, using the scheduling modes capability - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/project-for-the-web/scheduling-modes. No direct control in new Planner, but the plan viewed in new Planner will adhere to the chosen mode for the plan, and assigned tasks of any type will also be available in new Planner.
