OK. You are now using the correct terms. There are slight differences between spouse visa & ILR and EEA national family member & PR but it is not crucial in your case.
Once you got married to a EEA national (exercising treaty rights), you became legal in the country even without asking for a permission from the HO so point 3 is covered.
Once you have obtained PR, there is no need to exercise treaty rights any more. It doesn't matter if you are EEA national or not.
As I said, for naturalisation employment is not required. If you are self employed, the HO will ask for some documents to verify your taxes are in order as part of the good character criteria.
