I have thought this for a while now. It never made sense to me that they would put a buffer in sa'angreal against the taint when there was no taint at that time. It make more sense if they were trying to buffer the use of the TP through sa'angreal.
The buffers in the sa'angreal are mostly buffers against drawing too much power. However, angreal made after the Breaking might have contained buffers against the taint. Maybe. Callandor was made DURING the breaking under special circumstances by the Aes Sedai who foretold the Dragon's rebirth. It would be safe to assume that THESE Aes Sedai, unlike the "modern day" useless ones, actually knew what they were doing and designed it to a specific purpose that only they know and we must wait and see.
Plus, the Aes Sedai of the AoL didn't know about the true power until Mierin (Lanfear) detected it, realized men and women could both use it, and tried to tap into it effectively boring into the Dark One's prison. Any angreal made before that could NOT have a buffer against the true power in it unless it was a complete fluke. But, any angreal made after the bore was made probably has either a buffer against it OR a means of using it more easily (Callandor?)
Interesting theories.

I like the Callandor might aid in the channeling of TP aspect. *NM*

Except HE can't do squat with Callandor - a woman has to do it, and her strength is unhelped *NM*

How can we assume Callandor can channel the TP if it can't channel Saidar? *NM*

"Merely" guiding the flows IS doing the channeling!

He can't use it in that link. Cadsuane said the woman has to do it. *NM*

If used with 1 woman, there's probably little to no benefit (sanity-wise). *NM*
