Layer blending modes
Am I correct in thinking that the only way to make a blending mode permanent, is to merge it with a blank layer?

Re: Layer blending modes
Yes, although it doesn't always work - some effects are often lost, particularly if you're using Layer Styles as well. A more reliable method is to turn off all the other layers, including the background, and then to a merged copy.

Re: Layer blending modes
Yes, I've noticed that before, when merging a lot of layers, things like hard-light go squiffy.
