Yes. Knifes edge starts like that obviously benefit disproportionally from even small buffs. A slightly larger army might mean the enemy never engaging you and draining your manpower, or big countries allying you sooner. And is a direct nerf to the Ottomans.

It would benefit more in the sense you now will get free Bulgarian cores easier, but u could always apply that strategy after ur first war with the ottomans. So I don’t think it will change much, but the increase in revenue by that one province, however small, would be very welcome for a cash strapped Byzantium which needs every ducat
Larger loan size, slight income boost, perhaps +1 extra force limit... it's gonna translate to fewer loans and inflation which is pretty nice.

In the actual war with Ottomans it will likely not feel very different, however there are some points to which it will benefit the nation. The extra development may be enough to consecrate metropolitan before the war making it more likely to pick the icon giving discipline. It could allow you more options for fabricating CB's across the black sea. In the peace deal with the Ottomans you could cut them off in the Balkans more easily.
For the AI this will make little difference, but a skilled player could work a lot of angles with it.

I sense anti-Komnenoi bias from Paradox. Why isn't Trebizond getting another province?

In all seriousness, I think that it might make Byzantium marginally easier. But I don't expect it to have any noticeable difference unless a human is playing as Byzantium.I sense anti-Komnenoi bias from Paradox. Why isn't Trebizond getting another province?

The house of Kommenos lost the divine favour. They have failed the empire and are no better than the Latin usurpers.I sense anti-Komnenoi bias from Paradox. Why isn't Trebizond getting another province?
All hail the Palaiologos!

All hail Montferrat, sure. All hail 'Byzantium' (Ha!), well...

There's some justification for Byzantium to be controlling Burgas (although a more coastal province would be more accurate) in 1444. Trebizonds current province seems to match their borders very well.I sense anti-Komnenoi bias from Paradox. Why isn't Trebizond getting another province?

Bigger loans + bigger FL meaning much less cost when you need to go over FL (both for land and naval potentially) = much cheaper and less inflation.
At the same time Byz strats tend to be very specific and rely on particular predictable Ottoman actions which could very easily change for better or worse.

For me one extra province is one more place where I can build galleys and this would make a lot bigger impact than better economy

Actually, how about making Morea as a vassal of Byz? You can put both as "historical friends" so that Morea won't rebel, plus the same dynasty would contribute to it.

I think that is likely to l happen - the devs are probably trolling us. Many mods have turned Morea into a vassal and have Burgas as a province.
Edit: Grammar

I wish there was a way for the Komnenoi to be restored without conquering Byzantium as Trebizond.
