It wasn't mentioned if the side effects are removed, and I heard that Tsubaki's blindness was cured by Izanami, so I can't answer this question. I think, Zero Type does not make its user blind, but it does not remove the side effects either. Will have to research this later.

It's a bit different with the Sealed Spear. Sealed Armament was said to take its user's light, and its overuse kills its wielder. But the Sealed Spear doesn't use wielder's light for attacks, and blindness is not a side effect, it's a price for using it. So, for example, a person can take the Sealed Armament and use it for a couple of minutes - not enough to lose sight - and they'll be fine, but if a person will use the Sealed Spear for a couple of minutes, they will still go blind, since they used it. As we see with Kuon, she does not die or something, she just slowly loses her sight, it becomes like in nighttime.

Mu was smelted in a Cauldron only during the Ibukido Experiment in 2194, and you know that it didn't end well. When Noel was smelted in Kagutsuchi, she didn't need a Cauldron, Terumi specifically pointed that out. It was just a cocoon (I don't know where they got it), that used souls that Hazama stored in the Monolith.
