Demodulation

This way you'll get a reading of the sin/cos peaks, and will avoid delays from the envelope detector (which there will be, it's just a low pass filter).

Absolutely, an envelope detector wouldn't be satisfactory at all.

With a non linear device included------ without that, it won't demodulates anything!

I'm not sure you know the signal from a resolver. No need for anything non linear, it's pure sampling.

Sorry, I was really just commenting on the bit about the envelope detector.--- bit "tongue in cheek".

Well you're not wrong, just old fashioned :)
In a classic resolver you'd multiply the excitation carrier with the sin/cos signals to extract the polarity of sin/cos. Is a multiplier is non-linear? Dunno how to classify it.
Today its all digitized with fast ADCs.
