Stark inheriting Beyond the Wall/implications for the Watch

[tsf4]

Playing as Lord of Arrendal, I have a few questions:

1. Lord Paramount Jon Stark (during the reign of King Jahareys) is the son of the King beyond the Wall. He inherits the kingdom, and everything goes okay. Shouldn't this be a freakishly huge event in the world?

2. It seems like the Night's Watch doesn't even have a purpose now since the "wilding lands" are taken over by the North ... should there be an event for the dissolution of the Watch in this case, with a reinstatement of the Watch if wildings own the land again?

Then, though, how would the Watch be dissolved? Who would get the land? I feel like the North could be wayyy too OP if they get the Watch ... also, whoever gets it could just take the "duchy" of the Watch as a vassal...

Lets discuss these things! I never knew about this situation until playing this mod, and it is really intriguing to think about.

The wildlings do not kneel. And they don't follow a man due to his blood. The first thing they'd do is abandon the new king beyond the wall because he's sitting in Winterfell.

This could questioned... if the wildling provinces could ever be culture-converted to First Men and thus made civilized. Which can't happen by design, so all you get is a dual-held title until something happens like a strong enough rebellion or a title succession loss to split them up again.

Just because a Stark claims to rule the Wildlings, or might even enjoy some power over them temporarily due to personal achievements, is no reason for the Watch to suddenly disband. It has outlasted many Kings-Beyond-the-Wall, and this one will be no different.
