However, It is entirely possible that callandor was used to create the seals.
that's a possibility. personally, i think lews therin had a good reason for not using callandor, and i don't think callandor will be the final solution this time around either. rafo i guess.
when it comes to why the pattern influences some events and not others, i feel like it's best just to invoke bellisario's maxim. but i guess if we all thought that way, scifi and fantasy would end up getting a lot more sloppy due to lack of author accountability.

Why was Callandor not considered?

I don't believe Callandor existed during the War of Power

I think Callandor is a trap for the Shadow. Tempting and now the strongest Sa'Angreal and hidden...
