Intriguing climb, current FDR capabilities and AF447 analysis

PJ2 and CJ in recent posts, commented on FDR capabilities:

I'm genuinely interested in any push to improve flight data recording
I 'did' FDRs late in my engineering career, so at least I'm familiar with the concepts
I need to present 3 (conceptual) questions (important to the analysis and understanding of the intriguing climb):

1) All information (except WX radar) being presented to PF and PNF are normally recorded in the SSFDR used in AF447? RHS not recorded could affect the investigation team analysis capability? Could affect the analysis in order to to understand PF (if confirmed at RHS) behavior?

2) Internal System information like redundant inputs to the System (e.g. individual ADM outputs) are recorded?

3) Internal information (of the System) is recorded to allow a clear analysis of how System operated when something (anything) affects the "redundancy degree" of the System? (causing it to operate less redundantly)
