In her defense, she has no way of getting in contact with him

One of the things that annoyed me about Egwene is that she knows there are Black Sisters with Rand but does not immediately try to communicate this information to him.
How can she? Even if he doesn't bother to shield his dreams, he is a warder twice over and thus protected, so she cannot contact him that way. She has no idea of where he is (and she did ask Aviendha after all) and no way of finding out reliably. Elayne is much better informed in that regard but she is restrained from getting in touch with him by practical considerations such as Aviendha mentions in the beginning of CoT when they first feel the Cleansing. If his own baby-momma can't relay information to him (as for example, the fact that she now has that particular relationship to him), how is Egwene supposed to?

The only mitigating factor was that she had already dumped Rand at that time

Sure, way to convince me. Compare her to two of the most despicable Anglophonic rulers in history

And she does not delegate to them. And no, sorting out rank among minions is not delegating power

Rand can certainly be domineering, but nowhere near as much as Egwene.

right, because she's threatened to hang people who disobey, or bodily thrown people out of her rooms

people like her in real life are not likeable, but they are necessary in society.
