to give some possible answers to some of the questions.
bahamut as summon- just too powerful. i believe he is immortal unlike the other avitars. and to summon him, it would require more then simply reconstituting his defeated spirit.
as for the odin/alexander theory- you do have to defeat them both leaving them in a severly weakened state. and you only plead for their assistance for a very short duration.
i think bahamut would be far too powerful. also they would have to make him a fire element and that would mean 2 fire elemental avitars and that would offset the balance of the job.
with the indruduction of cait sith(which i believe to be light) that will make 2 light, 2 dark, and 1 of each element that can be controlled. and a light and dark that are momentairily summoned.
as for a few other WTF issues- how abot the fact that you can carry 90 extremely large book shelves or beds on your person but you cant in any way stack coffer ande chest keys.
that a ninja wielding daggers causes more damage then with katanas

Why do beetles link by sight when they don't have any eyes?
Why is there parrying skill on RNG relic when they have no native skill?
Why does BLU get access to throwing weapons when they have no native skill?

Mega Flare is traditional non-elemental, not fire.
Bamahut wouldn't be overpowered, it would put SMN in it's rightful place instead of underpowered. Tanaka's vision of Balance etc.

Want to know something I couldn't make sense of when I still played?
Remember in Wings of the Goddess where you planted a treant bud in the past, then traveled to the future to collect an item for a NPC from the grown treant? Going by that, anything we affect in the past should have some impact on the future; to a degree. However! How come none of the NPCs in the present that were key NPCs in the past nations' stories remember you? Or even hint at it? Don't you think that the Archduke of Jeuno would have remembered you? Or what's his face that ?
This is why you leave time travel to The Doctor. >_> Silly Sqenix story writers.
Why touching your *** makes everything work.

There are a lot of eternally-puzzling questions out there, I think...
Why is "twenty years ago" supposedly such a long span of time for Vanadiel people? It's not really as long as they are thinking it is. :p

I agree, where the heck did all the fortifications and doors on dungeons that have no doors go???

Why rng got a treasure hunter ability over cor... I'd think pirates who are all about gambling would be the ranged class to get an ability to increase chances of getting treasure.

Why Bard only got about 2 or 3 different tunes to play.
It's annoying and repetative....

On that note, why Bard's only get a C skill for their music, but are the only ones who can carry a tune worth a damn?
And when you cook something, where the hell do the dishes and cutlery come from!?

Why can I kill four foot spiders in game without any fear, but in RL it's a life or death situation against a one inch spider?

1) because singing and the (instrument) skill add up(which i think gives you the ability to go over the A+ cap)
2) magic...pure..unscrupulous..magic
bat eyes and such have 1 huge fricken eye, drop airmens lenses...but detect by sound?

bard skills are a bit wierd :<
Singing skill + (the instrument you have equipped) skill gives you your total skill level [if i understand it correctly]. at capped you can get a total of 746 skill (373+373= 746) which is way over the A+ cap for skill :< if they where all A+ BRD would be incredubroken. Not to mention the effects that skill has on songs :<

Hume Males make it look like a Great Sword is so heavy when in battle stance. But when they emote it's so light.
Elvaan Females stab with Axes? How does that hurt a mob?
Gravity a Marid and run far away. Come back in 10 mins and it still finds you?
Pull a mob from one of the holes in Yuhtunga/Yhoater Jungle and they become jesus?
