I like all of this.
There's one thing I think you should consider. Istari faculties are apparently limited while manifested in mortal flesh in Middle Earth. So how does an Istari really compare to someone like Galadriel in this state of being? Knowing what the Istari are, should Galariel respond to their true nature, which is of little practical use and unavailable in Middle Earh, or simply to what they are while in Middle Earth? And conversely, Gandalf to Galadriel?

Gandalf, Radagast (the Istari in general) and Galadriel, going forward. Hoping Phillipa Boyens et al remember that The Lady is sacred, but the Wizards Divine.

It can be amended, or at least not exacerbated.

We do agree on many of these points. And perhaps most of all how wrong that business with The Witch-King was

I don't think any are suggesting, and certainly I am not, that their should be a complete role reversal,

Limited but not absent. Their powers were still beyond those of mortal men, even kings, and beyond

In this one instance, it is not so much a matterof him appearing weak, as of the roles and relationships being misconstrued.
