1)Loss of thrust on the rhs thus resultant vector to the right
It's a moment to the right, not a vector. We're talking about the difference between Vmcg and Vmca. While airborne, the airplane sees no crosswind. The statement;

More lift from the lhs due increased wind component from the lhs.Therefore resultant lift vector will make airplane roll AND yaw to the right.../
Implies the airplane is in a slip, not a crosswind with wheels on ground.
