Wait a minute, I always thought the best B&W conversions are the ones that have colour information in the RAW?

I'm not sure whether I'm nitpicking, or simply not understanding a couple of things:
Black and white film (whether silver- or dye-based) doesn't have equal sensitivity to all wavelengths of light (hence pan- and ortho-); How does this play into the discussion?
I "get" that a Bayer filter adds colour, but if the Foveon is sensitive to different wavelengths, is it not recording rather than adding colour?
I cannot believe that "surplus" sensors will be used for a Monochrome version of the camera.
