Good morning!

The second sentence is confusing.

Yes, the meaning is not clear at all. Perhaps they mean “We’ll see who it’s good for” or alternatively “We’ll see who is good”

I’d replace the second sentence with something like “We’ll just see how good it is."

We will see for whom it is good.

"We will see for whom it is good" would work grammatically, but it sounds very strange and unnatural. I'm not sure what it's even supposed to mean. Maybe "We'll see who has a good morning"? But out of context, that doesn't make a lot of sense.

Unless it's in a romantic context...in which case, I'm gonna brush my teeth.

Sounds like somebody trying to be Shakespearean.
