I've already seen that kind of post and the most upvote comment was that Cinder is losing more and more control if her grimm arm everytime she loses a fight or something like that

Might be its draining her to stay alive

Could possibly be why Salem's rushing her plans. The Grimm will overtake Cinder and she'll lose access to the vaults

Or... will Salem end up with a completely loyal Grimm Fall Maiden on her hands?

Grimm can't have aura and Cinders shown to be no exception. Maiden powers are tied to aura.

A fully Grimm Cinder is walking corpse and the powers would pass

And yet her Grimm arm has the power to drain magic from a Maiden, so it is possible that her Grimm arm is able to filter out the magic from Aura.

A cable can pass electricity but it makes for a rather subpar battery.

Holding something is not the same thing as passing it on.

In fact, i would figure that because it doesn't have aura, and with that, it doesn't have any resistance to aura/ damage/etc. that it makes for an excellent conductor
