You miss the point of what checks and balances are supposed to do, which are to limit an individual's power, which means the individual is going to get bored.

It would be difficult to work into the lore. We already have 3 grand company leaders representing each of the 3 available city states. We are grouped up to fight against the Garlean Empire. Why would we split up by dethroning the Grand Company leaders we just got or start new political empires when we're about to get crushed by an outside power + a mysterious other power?
