At this point, I think the theory that Kuzan is a marine spy, or will explicitly betray Blackbeard is just kind of a bad theory.
We had years of buildup of Kuzan being increasingly skeptical of working for the WG from w7 and the flashback to him fighting Akainu. Plus, him meeting and joining Blackbeard felt authentic and actually well done. I think it would be too weird to think that Kuzan as a spy would freeze Blackbeards entire crew but things worked out so well that Teach ended up giving him an offer? Just feels contrived
The idea that he would betray Teach is a bit too obvious, no? We know he was conflicted, but he did end up putting in work for Teach against his own teacher. Does anyone really want Kuzan to go from being a marine, to a blackbeard pirate, to leaving the blackbeard pirates to join something again?
