Summary​

Liege choices for council positions are nonsense

Description​

My character has 24 stewardship and 13 martial and is my liege's Martial. The steward of my liege has 15 martial and 9 stewardship.

This is less of a bug than a suggestion for an area that could use improvement. Why would my liege opt for both an inadequate martial, and an bad steward, when he could have a decent martial and a superb steward? I understand that if the game were to be doing checks constantly for what the best council is for every ruler, it would probably slow the game down quite a bit. But if there was a way to trigger a liege to reevaluate the positions, or at the very least request your moving to a different position, that would be really helpful.

Suggestions:
I can petition my liege for a council position, but once I'm on the council, could I petition my liege to change my position to another one? Even if it requires a hook or something, payment, I don't know. A skill challenge between you and the requested position? So my requesting to swap with the martial would be my stewardship against his stewardship, and his martial against my martial. Or the chance of the liege agreeing would check if both positions are an increase in value, if they aren't then the request might be declined based on how bad the aptitude result would be after the swap?

Steps to reproduce​

Be a vassal with high aptitude in any council position, get your liege to have an open position in a different council position. He will likely choose you to do that position, rather than shuffling the council to optimize their setup. Could probably get the same situation by having a powerful vassal of your liege in the position you want. I doubt the liege considers that he could move that councilor, rather than just assigning you to a position you aren't good at (and neither is the other vassal good at their current position).
