I think using the TP against the DO is wishful thinking.

I mean, do you use fire to burn Apollo, or use water to drown Poseidon?
The TP is the DO. When the Bore is drilled, it is to access the TP. That means the TP resides inside the DO's prison, and can not be accessed in any other way.
The way the series is going, I think that the Dragon's soul is somehow currently an integral part of the DO's prison, maybe even the front door. The reason why the Shadow keeps trying to convert the Dragon, age after age, is to open the DO's prison completely. Any other way just does not allow the DO complete access to the pattern. Even the Last Battle only serves to force the Dragon to give up. If the Dragon does not give up, the DO only has limited access to the pattern. As soon as the Dragon gives up, the front door opens, and the DO wins.

don't forget you can't touch the true power without the DO's permission

It also might be that Rand used Moridin as a conduit, making the DO's permission irrelevant.

Indeed... Moridin is definitely worried about the connection

i agree it was def in the DO's best interests to give it to rand THEN, just not when....

Seems to me destroying the DO with balefire would take a force equal to his.

I think the TP IS the DO - sealing the Bore with it is illogical and impossible.

The Foresaken had their permission revoked, but the DO can enact consequences on them...
