In my opinion Etzel Send a noteboard - 16/01/2010 03:51:02 PM
One can't really compare a character saying something wrong in the series to the text of the author, which is obviously written as a bonus for interested fans (many casual readers of the WoT probably never read SoSG) outside the actual series to deliver more background informations on the Strike. It doesn't make much sense to me that this story would in essence be wrong, even if it is written in the form of an in world-story.

And as said, in the quote I profided RJ basically confirmed that the explanation can be found in SaSG:
"As I pointed out in something ... I wrote a piece called The Strike at Shayol Ghul ... there was a great division at the time – I don’t know if all of you have read i ... or have none of you read?"

RJ gives then the same explantion which can be found in SaSG.
