Heck, even Tyrion got a fairer trial, and he had an enraged Cersie stacking the deck against him.
It wasn't a trial at all. They said some stuff, he denied it, they killed him. I'm not super complaining, but it didn't feel right for Starks.

After all, WE know Bran's visions are true, but does everybody else know that? You'd think they might require a bit more evidence.
He's THE weasel, and he couldn't think of anything to say?

The problem is that Targaryens have been doing it. It's why Viserys and Aerys were nuts.

Yes, true. If the genetics are perfect and there are no mutations then there is no genetic issue.

We're worrying about scientific verisimilitude, when they say a medieval city has a million people?

Well, in-universe, there was already an uncle-niece marriage that produced two kings.
