Questions

Everyone agrees that a Sukkah is Muktzah even on the eighth day (Shemini Atzeres). 

The Gemara explains the reason is that the Sukkah is needed during the period of Bein Hashmashos between the seventh and eighth day. 

Why does that give the Sukkah the status of Muktzah for the entire eighth day?

The Gemara says that Daled Minim are not needed during the period of Bein Hashmashos between the seventh and eighth day. 

Why not? 

Would the same be true if someone did not yet fulfill his Mitzvah with the Daled Minim on the seventh day?
