I don't see why Egwene would oppose his plan

We've seen this even after he became BuddhaRand - he acknowledges that some of his former "opponents" on the side of the Light, such as Siuan, Cadsuane, Egwene, did what they had to do but he still has a blind spot. It seems to me that the Pattern doesn't necessarily want to place him in a position where he dictates his terms to all the world leaders. I think that this meeting will not go the way he pictured it, and it seems that he has been set up for disaster. You had mentioned that the Shadow was aware of his timeline, but I also think that Moridin planned for it. We haven't seen a POV from him, yet, but I do get the impression that he keeps thinking this transcendent moment makes him more than mortal and he has been surprised a few times that he gets angry or can be goaded just like before.
for world peace. It's what the Aes Sedai have been trying to achieve and failing since the Breaking of the World. She along with the rest of the Aes Sedai would jump at this opportunity. And the visions Aviendah had also seem to indicate that his world peace proposal was accepted by everyone until the Aiel, lose cannons that they were, sabotaged it.

I think people aren't giving Egwene enough credit.

She's not bringing everyone for a discussion, but for leverage to force him to change his mind.

Sadly, the thing you reference four times isn't actually anywhere in the book.

I think the Tower needs a singular leader, though you may be right.

The DO will be forced to act because breaking the seals is inherently an attempt to seal the bore...

While I agree overall, I think this is a case where Rand/TDR mistakes his role

I think Egwene is successful and Rand has to go to the Seanchan for female channeler assistance

That's just it: Egwene is not only wrong, she's narratively wrong.

It seems an odd oversight, yes; I can't even recall her being Delved when the truth was revealed.

Ensure this value has at most 100 characters (it has 101).

Not sure if Rand had seized the source yet - he wouldn't have wanted to do it in front of Ramshalan

Not only must I agree with you, but I think you've divined Egwenes ultimate destiny.
