No you wouldn't lose much nutrients. Some oils maybe that would get stuck coating your thing. Fuck eating seats for nutrients though.

What is bread. What is mustard. What are spices.

What the fuck are you thinking.

Putting sunflower seeds into like, a salad dressing or something actually sounds lovely

I make rice pudding, corn-granola and oatmeal at home with various nuts/seeds and dried fruits in them. My variation iteration is dried cantaloupe and pumpkin kernels in rice pudding. It's also nice in oatmeal but the cantaloupe is far too sweet to add to corn-granola. The sunflower seeds are perfect for that, though. Corn-granola with sunflower seeds, juice-sweetened dried cranberries (sugar-sweetened are too sweet) and matcha powder syrup is quite good, if a bit faggy.

As for grinding the kernels up: go for it. Sunbutter is a thing and I think I've seen pumpkin seed butter before, too. For more savoury applications, dried (not roasted) pumpkin seeds are added, ground up, to a variety of spicy Central American dishes, especially moles. Roasted ones, I think, can be used, too, but I've only used the dried ones. As the kernels are about 42% fat, they're high enough where adding them, ground up, to most any sauce would probably work nicely.
While I've never done this, I know dried pumpkin kernels and dried sunflower kernels have a similar fat content to dried coconut scrapings (a bit less, actually, as dried coconut is about 64% fat by weight) which leads me to believe that you may be able to extract something from them similar in utility as coconut milk. YMMV as this is just speculation. I've never heard of pumpkin/sunflower milk.

Make pasteli-like bars with the seeds, a little warm honey, and lemon zest

Add them to salads (roasted on a dry frying pan or just plain out of the bag). If you want to add them to sauces just do it, no need for grinding. I often add a little sunflower when making rice with vegetables or other meals of this kind. As 1 tbsp is about 60 kcal one has to watch out tho.
Some varieties of pumpkin seeds pop on a frying pan a bit like like popcorn, this is fun.

Try adding them to brown rice before you cook the rice. Don't cringe, but a pack of onion soup mix is a great brown rice base seasoning.

Why would you want to eat those garbage seeds anon, they aren't healthy, it's a meme. Do yourself a favour and don't eat them, they are most likely rancid.

Grind it to a fine flour, add olive oil and salt.
Use it like peanut butter. Yam.

Yes. You have to be very careful with seeds. If you're not careful while grinding them then you can accidentally crush all the vitamins, rendering them useless. Protein can also be crushed out of seeds if you don't crush them gently.
