I knew a little of this, but not the depth of who was tied to whom. Nor did I know the pending scandal involving GACuster.
In high school I was taught Benteen and Reno could NOT relieve Custer except by also being wiped out.
I knew that was BS even then. The absence of courts martial was the give away.
I would say the hypothesis you advanced is quite reasonable. Fitting both the known evidence and making a valid prediction of the future events, i.e. exploitation of the nations and their resources that followed in the renewal of the "indian wars". The words of the empire.
The ST of the 19th Century at work is now my opinion of the LBH, another fable.
