Re the 2nd article about Monochrome cameras:

A monochrome converted camera is necessarily more sensitive to light (the color filter arrays necessarily mean fewer photons reach the underlying photon detector).

Microlenses are sandwiched with the CFA and both are removed during conversion to monochrome. On  some cameras removing the sandwich gains a little of responsivity (about 1/3 of a stop), on some cameras a little is lost.
