Finally an update. xd
I wouldn't think Zex's Lexicon would be that much of a damper on the game's production. If he thought out weapons for the rest of the Org. then why not have Zex's out on stand by in KHII? Heck, Xemnas (though no one knew who he was at the time) was there with his...'lightsabers' in FM:KH. xd And that had quite a few years difference -enough for Tetsuya to plan out an outline for just one weapon with its respective owner. If anything, it was just a ploy to get us prepared for FM:KHII & CoM. 'Cause now we can stare at him as he floats around laughing in an actual battle.
~Now, the thing with Axel you mentioned. It's true that he manipulated the scenario in Castle Oblivion but seeking out aid would kind of mess things up. He was thinking on the spot for all I can tell -as when Larxene revealed that she was a part of the 'Org. revolution', for example. I have to wonder why he'd pick Zexion -who clearly refuses to do anything unless it's absolutely necessary.
Getting the Replica to 'finish off everyone in the castle' (save Sora) would really make things harder for him. As in the CoM manga (which I finally bought, thank goodness) they had chores to do. If you take living maintenance into consideration (wherever the two would run off to if they were working together) he'd go into 'glaring-death' mode if he was left with a majority of responsibilities. xd Then, also, the fact that he'd probably want to continue finding a way to get his heart back like the Org. originally wanted. So...
Axel was there to rid the Org of traitors and to go about his own needs. The Replica was created to fulfill Vexen's purpose of obtaining Sora until the Replica was taken away from him by Marluxia -thus, worry in the lower Castle of Mar's capabilities and the need of the real Riku to cancel out Sora (especially when the Replica went rouge). When Marluxia was defeated they didn't need Riku anymore and wanted to get rid of him in case he stirred up trouble.
Zexion can be seen as a traitor for going against the ways of the Org. without proper direction. (As in KHII they go for certain beings with strong hearts to use as weapons. Zexion just wanted him gone. I'm a little iffy on the Nobody-'birth' concept.) And with the Replica still around it would save Axel the time to get rid of him personally, instead goading him on until he brought about his own end.
Though, manga-wise, Riku brought him down...in one hit. Joy. xp They may not have hearts but they do have other vital organs....who somehow survive with a lack of the blood pumping organ. confused
Still can't get my head around Zexion faking his death...er, fading from his non-existance. He'd still need to worry about his lack of heart problems. The only place he had was the Org. -and Xemnas would be sure to know if he was still around and hunt him down. He worked with him at Radiant Garden so there'd be some sort of indication of his methods.

Actually I recall his "lightsabers" being in another final fantasy game...get this...they were called ULTIMA WEAPON... Andthey looked exactly like the weopons Xemnas... so really that was a good weapon for him
