I dont want this to be seen as a criticism of what he did ittl.It makes sense in many ways and its within his right to do it as an author who has put great work into ttl.Personally, I feel that David's got it right on the money in that the US portrayed in the books would never let the CSA go under any circumstances, not after everything they've been through for 80 years. I also feel that we're forgetting that if push came to shove, the US is more than capable of playing dirty in keeping the Confederates down for good if they even think of starting a guerilla problem Man with the Iron Heart style.
I just happen to think there is a better option to accomplish the same goal. Also not so much because of the potential of having a situation like the Man with the Iron Heart. Thats a possibility at least immediately afterwards and to me is much more likely to happen in this situation that it ever was in OTL Nazi Germany simply because of the amount of gun ownership in North America even back then.
What Im thinking more about again is the long game and something almost unintentional like what happened in OTL by the Union pretty much taking the South back no questions asked and no real changes made - permananetly at least. If reunion with the CSA somehow changes the national character of the USA then that is a terrible ultimate outcome of this plan.....
