I mean, a big part of the male Forsaken is them thinking that they are somehow Rand's equal in the grand scheme of things... When they're not. Like at all. Only one of then even seeming to vaguely get what Rand's role in said scheme of things even "is", and even him not quite getting that the Pattern doesn't really need TWO centers... It would be kind of self defeating.

... Mind, none of that really makes up for BS not seeming to get how powerful the sa'angreal he gave the guy would actually be. Much less the fact that... The Light would still likely have him vastly overpowered in OP strength by way of pure numbers... To say nothing of BS having the wand being nigh as powerful...

... That entire setup was silly.
