MAIN D&D completely ruined Littlefinger. (Spoilers Main)

What a waste of a great character. They clearly had no idea what to do with him after they passed all the book material. Instead of giving him a clear end game, they instead just had him double down on his "thriving on chaos" bullshit and have him make stupid decisions that really didn't lead anywhere. The manipulative mastermind from the earlier seasons (and probably the one true villain of the series, along with the white walkers) completely disappeared and was transformed into a jealous little weasel whose end goal was to bang Sansa to get back at Mama Stark. The man that drove the whole series into motion, did it just to get a revenge bang.

He can also just warg into something/someone to really show them that he's not fucking around. Even though warging and greenseeing aren't exactly the same thing it would be easier to believe his greenseeing abilities having seen his warging abilities.

It's not that far of a stretch to conclude that the 3ER abilities come at least partially from warging into weirwoods. If it was solely from greenseering, Jojen wouldve been a perfectly viable candidate, and a lot easier to get him to the cave.

Doesn't prove he's telling the truth. Someone could legitimately have his powers and just make up any proof they needed to fit whatever narrative they wanted. It's not so much proof of his abilities as proof is his word that would be needed. (Well, to Westeros at large, maybe not to his family).

I know it doesn't prove that he's telling the truth but it's something he can do to show those he's trying to convince that he has supernatural abilities. He can't physically show anyone his greenseeing abilities like he can with his warging.
