Here's the problem with the human BB theory: Oddman gains basically none due to this.
He has three natural borders; No one can touch him.
He is thus-far eternal allies with one of the top-tier nations in the game.
His latest expansion ensures that 1) He's far too large to take down (Harder than Russia because he has more provinces) and 2) Bavaria would have a very, very hard time of it even with allies if our recent instability continues.
He might gain some human BB in the short term, but when the time comes that anyone can either actually do anything or care enough about his power to do anything, this entire happening will be long forgotten.
Do I like the fact that Ike got annexed out of the blue? No. Do I care enough about it to do anything or to effect my relations with any of the three parties? No.
All Oddman has to do is stop talking about it, get a NAP with Bavaria and Golle, and the entire issue will go away.
