It's also possible that Elza was afraid to touch the Access Key. She must have known that Rand had trapped Callandor with wardings in the Stone. As you mentioned in another post, her terror for SH would have made her go for the DB immediately but she might have wondered about her safety with the Access Key.
On the other hand, Elza being Black Ajah, might discount anything that involves saidin because it provides her with limited personal gain, unless she can give it to one of the male Forsaken.
As for TP addiction, I'm not sure if it's a huge problem. Demandred seems to be happy with saidin and generally stays away from the TP, so Rand should be able to do the same.

I don't think that Semirhage was sacrificed

I don't know if Semirhage was sacrificed or not. Either way the Semirhage quote set up tGS 6 books

I'd say that there was a pre-meditated plan or backup plan to sacrifice Semirhage

I think SH simply didn't care about the CK access key

Moridin and SH knew that the CK could never defeat the dark one so they were happy to leave it

the relevance is that it was impossible without the CK

??? The CK in the hands of a madman is exactly what the Dark One needs to destroy the pattern

So why not give it to Moridin then?

If their plan of taking Rand to Shayol Ghul suceeded then the CK was no longer needed

Could be simple. How do you find an object that "lies hidden"?

It could be, but I would still think they would have noticed the CK sitting next to the male a'dam

I don't believe in foreshadowing that you can figure out from the actual plot.
