You know, to this day fans still debating if in a song of ice and fire grrm is removing both the root and stem or just the testes and keeping the penis.

There is no debate. The literal introduction of the Unsullied has the slave master explicitly state that they completely remove the penis and testicles and he even scoffs at people who only remove the testicles.

I think Jamie going back to Cersei was the worst singular plot choice, but the general dumbing down of the writing is the worst part. Like in relation to Jamie, that scene where Tyrion is guessing things about the others and when he guesses that Brienne is a virgin, she acts embarrassed like she's a teenage boy in an American Pie movie. She's a highborne woman, she's supposed to be a virgin.

There were some other issues at the time, but I think the crack that really cascaded the entire thing into ruin was Littlefinger giving Sansa to the Boltons. That misses the entire point of both characters.
