There are just too many instances like that to pretend that Jordan was showing the limits of their imagination, rather than his own. With Egwene there are often direct contrasts which I can use to claim that he is deliberately subverting her. The examples I mentioned, and many other things concerning the Power, don't have any such counter-examples to suggest that Jordan was aware of their shortcomings. Having Egwene consistently undercut her own rationales allows me to argue that she is evil, but when every instance of creativity or ingenuity on the part of One Power users consists of inventing new weaves, rather than more useful applications for existing ones, that too is a pattern.
19. And he never once gives any indication of physical attraction or sexual interest in any degree. He might admire her beauty, but he shows more hormonal response to a woman is one chapter with Elayne than three books of Egwene. The very first mention of their relationship has Tam teasingly suggesting just what you said, and Rand faking enthusiasm in response.
Hey, yeah. That's right. That is kind of similar.

Well, first off, the comparison is with Leto II, not Paul, but:Leto II didn't have a polygamous relationship, he had a sham marriage.

She is standing next to the Wise One from the Aiel Waste—y'know, the people who have actually BEEN compared to the Fremen? Not least by me, three lines up.

She is on top of the Aes Sedai Queen of Andor. Well, I suppose you could call Elayne a princess...

Elayne has the twins; Aviendhas are quadruplets. And, come to think of it, their ability to channel from the womb is similar to Leto II, his aunt and his twin being "pre-born" with Other Memory from the moment of conception. Oh, wow. Color me shocked. I guess I should read one or the other book series before running my mouth.

Uh... huh....


Actually, he did not know. No one did until Moiraine diagnosed him at the nadir of his affliction. She gets all huffy that he didn't take her single question about Mordeth giving them gifts to the very limits of any possible interpretation, but she also criticizes Rand for not remembering her one question about dreams, too. He was not a shiftless prevaricator, since he doesn't lie that we see, except to stupid kids to play pranks, and has a considerable number of skills that take practice and labor to learn. He might be considered shiftless by the standards of the puritanical Two Rivers folk, because he like gambling, but that's about it.
This doesn't fit anything. The only galloping away he did was trying to ditch them after the battle at Cairhien, which was hardly abandoning them to certain excruciating death. When their deaths were on the line, he never tried to leave them, and their fate was his direct motivation for accepting leadership of one of the flanking units.
No, it was basically the same characteristic behavior that Siuan recognized in Mat in one of his first PoV chapters in the whole series, when she compared him to her uncle who died trying to rescue children from a fire.

When? How? Where does he say this? He resents a virtual stranger imposing dangers and difficulties on him by association, but if something truly needs to be done, and there is no one more qualified, Mat steps up.
He wasn't a horse trader, he merely possessed negotiation skills, passed on from his father, which he himself characterizes as being born of careful consideration of all aspects of a situation, rather than any moral flexibility. Such behavior as you suggest would be more akin to the Coplins and Congars, who were scorned and looked down upon in their community. The Cauthons would not have been so accepted if Abell or Mat made a living swindling and taking advantage of the people they lived among. No one, during Perrin's return, for example, suggests that the arrest of his mother and sisters has anything to do with chickens coming home to roost.

aMoL was intended to be the 12th. tGS was 12, ToM was 13 & aMoL ended up as 14.
It seems more like he was trying to cut it off, having previously let it get out of control. I don't see why RJ felt the need to stretch out WoT for more money. Keep going back to the well of a finished work, yes. But in the internet era, he had an audience ready for anything else he might want to sell, and he had the planned outrigger & sequel novels as well. He had better options if he was motivated by profit, but losing control of the pace and plot of the main series suggests an attachment over and above mere cupidity.

So you said before, and I repeat my assertion that the last two didn't seem to care about anything other than something they can put on a shelf and sell.
Then how do you explain me and tons of other people having a superior understanding of said characters and their arcs and what actually happened to them, to the guy who had access to Jordan's notes? None of the handicaps you claim Sanderson was working under account for stupidity and illogic of the concepts he put on the page, or things he changed as if he was completely incapable of seeing their point in the series. The warder bonds, for instance, were used to add depth to the perception of one character through another's eyes. It added a layer to their interactions, being aware of each other's feelings and mental state. Sanderson completely omitted that from every single scene featuring a warder-bonded couple, except for the silly telelpathic double bond of Pevara & Androl in his fan-fiction digression that took up a disproportionate amount of space in the last two books, at the expense of Logain, a character Jordan had been building up to play a role in the finale since at least book 4, and who had been a significant presence since book 1. Tell me how Harriet or Dougherty imposed that nonsense on him, why don't you?
