And since none of them have any need of a council, they wouldn't agree to forming one. Not to forget that from a lore-friendly perspective it's impossible to manage the guild affairs of multiple guilds at the same time, let alone becoming part of multiple ones. The Arch-Mage needs to stay at the college to ensure that everything goes as planned, expeditions, resources etc. Same thing goes with the Companions. The Listener needs to remain near the Night Mother and the Head of the Thieves Guild needs to keep thinking about ways to make sure the guild survives. There won't be time to form this council of yours in any realistic pov. Hence why you have no strategical insight, since it's impossible.

I do hope you realise that the Thalmor are not helping the Imperials, right? Also, you keep claiming the Thalmor can take out anybody they see fit, but this is utter nonsense, not confirmed in the game and just more of your fanfiction at its work.

No they can not. There's no logical way for them to do so, and therefor, they haven't done so.

I suggest to stop bringing your illogical fanfic into a debate. You simply cannot see beyond anything directly in front of you. You are the one who can't realize that the Thalmor can't take out anyone as they see fit but the ones they can are the Stormcloaks and Imperials. They have been working towards this goal all the time according to the game.

Just because you can't, doesn't mean other people can't do it. It is completely possible to manage every single guild at the same time while forming the mentioned council. That is the difference between having strategic insights and not having one like you.

The way the guilds work, none of them needs a council. Just because they haven't done so, does not mean they can't. If the Dragonborn is the leader of all Guilds, which you think is physically impossible to manage all of them at the same time is in fact possible. In fact once the Dragonborn becomes the leader of all the Guilds, a council and an personal headquarters where all the Guilds' representatives meets up with the Dragonborn like this becomes all too beneficial to have and is not illogical as your lacking of insights failed to see.

I've already stated this is what must be done in Skyrim for the Dragonborn, not what you can do in Skyrim.

This is not an illogical fanfic because I already stated this is just what must be done not what will happened. Your lack of insights is extremely obvious because despite knowing what the Thalmor wants, you can't seem to grasp their tactics are all for end game.
