in order to get addicted, he had to use the tp multiple times at least. one time is not enough to grow dependent on any substance. that means the do will have to sacrifice the rest of his forsaken basically
Not totally addicted perhaps, but it was described that Rand did have what might be called TP-cravings. He seemed to hold them off by using the Choedan Kal to get his "fix". If not for that, and given Rands insanity, it is not beyond possibility that Rand might have eventually slipped and used TP again.
I wonder for example if Rand was at all tempted to enter Far Madding and kill the in his mind traitorous borderlander-leaders with TP. What if he had not had CK or Nynaeve around, what would have happened?
Or the meeting with Tuon. Might he have convinced himself to draw just a little extra TP for safety reasons, if he had not had CK to give him that extra power.
And so on.

I don't know if Semirhage was sacrificed or not. Either way the Semirhage quote set up tGS 6 books

I'd say that there was a pre-meditated plan or backup plan to sacrifice Semirhage

Moridin and SH knew that the CK could never defeat the dark one so they were happy to leave it

the relevance is that it was impossible without the CK

??? The CK in the hands of a madman is exactly what the Dark One needs to destroy the pattern

It could be, but I would still think they would have noticed the CK sitting next to the male a'dam
