TV Thom might as well be a throw-away character rather than how he was written as one of the very few people Rand completely trusts.
Lan's prayer rituals were ridiculous and unnecessary. The only ritual recitation that exists anywhere in the books is the catechism about the Dark One and the Forsaken being bound (and its Darkfriend counterpart). Which we haven't yet heard even once. And there are better ways to illustrate the growing attraction between Lan and Nynaeve than a made up ceremony and an invented reply.
Yes, the only thing Logain would have sensed about Nynaeve's channeling was feeling goosebumps. It wouldn't matter how much of the Power she was drawing. But then they couldn't have him mutter back Moraine's words in an awestruck tone, suggesting Nynaeve must be the Dragon. Building on the earlier suggestion about Egwene (Lan asking Moraine if Logain's strength was the equal of Egwene).
Tinker rumspringa made me laugh. As did your assessment of the conversation between Perrin and Ila.
"36:36 Taika Waititi is really going to town on them bongos. Like a chimpanzee. That’s the way you do it."
I see what you did there. Well played.
