That depends on what hadiths you look for and take from, if you look towards Sunnis sure, they take things more literally, but the Shia hadiths do give meaning as parables or metaphysical realities.

It's translated as weak, but it doesn't mean the person is a weak person, it rather means they lack the power for reaching the truth. In some places, mustaaf means oppressed, but here it means those who don't have the power to teach the truth.

Again, shirk is defined as knowingly associating others with God.
There is other verses that prove not all polytheists are Mushrikeen or kaffers. Do you want to discuss them or is what I shown sufficient?
