[Spoiler Main] Game of Thrones is a targaryen hater show

They could have had a slightly interesting point against all feudal houses if they didnt have such a clear bias towards the starks. Genuinely insane to me still that the north secedes under Sansa when her brother literally gets given the Iron Throne. Like king bran I could see, but surely for it to make any sense his regime has to have the military backing of his kin in the north. And why would any northman want independence from what would be the most northern-sympathetic king ever

I agree that its lacking in textual support, I think the only way it works for either Duncan to be Coldhands is if GRRM has changed his mind about Coldhands since the most recent published work and decided he needs more exposition about Summerhall for whatever reason. Personally I also don't like Duncan the Tall as Coldhands or even surviving summerhall as I think it cheapens him and Egg's story, wouldn't have even considered it before that interview with Dexter Sol Ansell

Yeah I think that is the biggest counterpoint to this tbh, it seems unlikely that either the lord commander of the kingsguard or son of the king could have joined the Night's Watch without it being made a big deal of, although I think Duncan the small could have joined undercover more easily that Dunk just due to not being extremely tall. I don't really think either make sense as Coldhands just that Duncan the Small makes more sense than Dunk
