How did Lyta even exist in the first place post-Crisis?
Pat Dugan only had his belt, which Courtney inherited, because of the fact Sylvester was dead. His death is part of Courtney's origin story.
They do. Jade and Obsidian will appear in the Infinite Frontier one-shot with their father Green Lantern. And I believe we saw a few in Doomsday Clock?

Someone at Vergito -- I'm assuming the woman who started that line -- got pissy when Geoff brought back Lyta and Hector in JSA. She felt they were Vertigo properties. Note that Geoff didn't write the story in which Lyta and Hec 'died'. I believe that was by protest. Now, Vertigo doesn't even exist! It was a crappy decision -- probably on Levtiz's part. He was too wimpy to stand up to the Superman editors when they did a hatchet job on Legion by not allowing them to use Superboy -- even in its history!

I can't swear to it, but I'm fairly certain that I read he wasn't happy about the decision to pull them from JSA. That's why Keith Champagne, the inker, wrote that issue. He obviously wasn't building up their story just to end it that way.
That is really a nice view of the team. If we never saw them again as part of that team was because most of them became members of the JSA. The survivors, I mean.
Don't forget than between the original team and the Steel team, there was the Lexcorp founded team from the Everyman project, who had the merit of be the first version of the team in an animated series.

I liked the Lexcorp funded team and I wouldn't mind if they make a return.
Post Death Metal, i don't know how it works, but post Doomsday Clock, the real multiverse continued to exist, including the original Earth Two.
It's a pity none of this was built upon. With the original Earths ( plus new ones like post Crsis, nu52, Rebirth), DC could have created " houses" of comics that featured different Earths, such as
Earth Two: Infinity Inc
: Justice Society
: All Star Squadron ( set during WWII)
Earth 1985 ( formerly Earth One)
: Justice League of America
: New Teen Titans
Etc.... various titkes under various banners representing various Earths....
