As for L taking him on the team...well, there are a variety of potential reasons for that. He may have acknowledged his brilliance, may have wanted to observe him more directly (since the cameras didn't really work) or he may have just been thinking, "He's interesting. I want to keep him around." Besides, when the handcuff arc starts suspicion had faded somewhat. (And L could tell the moment when Light changed from Kira to Amnesia!Light.)

Light is lucky as hell. As he says with Naomi, "It looks like there are gods other than the gods of death on my side."

The nice thing about this list is that it leaves lots of space open for us fanficcers. *wink* *goes back to scribbling on her own fic*
