Hmm, I think this sort of misses the point. Take jinbe. He was the one who got fishman island under big moms protection while agreeing to pay the tribute to her. Let alone all the nations and pirate crews in the new world desperate to be under a yonko's protection. If jinbe was willing to subject his people to big mom's protection then it stands to reason the alternative was worst. Of course we are also told big mom's flag was what kept waves of pirates from trashing fishman island. Overall I'd say the conclusion here should be that big mom's tantrums were preferable to not having her protection at all.
I get your point but the thing is as long as her children will protect Totto Land AND people living there dosen't have to live in fear of yet another tantrum I think they should be fine. We know that Blackbeard kidnapped Pudding when Big Mom foolishly chased Luffy all the way to Wano but if her children won't be idiots who fight over control people of Totto Land should be fine. Though I still wonder what happened with Homies back there after Big Mom died. I think those that were made with fragments of other people souls should be fine but those made of her own soul should be dead. I still wonder how Zeus survived her death even though Prometeus, Napoleon and Hera seem to be out of commision. Hmm, I don't know if THAT'S how it really worked but I assume that once Zeus firmly choose Nami as his new master and literally fought for his life to stay with her he cut himself off Big Mom. It could be also that Big Mom can't take away life she has given while creating Homie so she have to kill her creation instead of disposing of it and take back fragment of her soul once it isn't needed anymore. Anyway sure, Big Moms death could temporary be problem for kingdoms under her protection but if her children take care of her business for her they should be fine. Plus like I said, no more tantrums and fearing that Big Mom will go through the island ruining and eating everything like some fat ass Godzilla. But honestly we'll have to wait and see if Oda will let us see what Big Moms death did to her island. Well, at least I'm sure that islands that were/could be robbed cleanly and destroyed for her "Tea Parties" should be better. After all no Big Mom no tea parties and thus her children don't have to rob any islands for ingredients for treats for her.
I wonder what happens now with Moria. He would refuse to serve Blackbeard over Absalom. He should be Luffy's enemy but Luffy defeated the man who destroyed his whole crew, and also saved a land that was like a home to him (apparently). And both rescued and befriended Oden's kids and scabbards.
Seems like the shadows prophecy would lead to Moriah putting his shadows in the dead of Wano and having them fight for Wano but he could also join Buggy, unless for some reason Shanks recruits Moriah. Blackbeard chased 3 Ex-Warlord's Devil Fruits, seems it won't be the end of them. And I bet at least 2 of them will be on the search for Luffy, and all 3 probably owe a debt to Luffy.
We still have not got the Weevil situation solved, maybe that is who is attacking somehow along with other people, they said strong like a young Whitebeard I think.
Anyway, Moria also owes Luffy for defeating Doflamingo who tried to ambush and kill him. And technically Jinbe was not really a hostile to Moriah, just beat him in a fight. Pretty much just wrong place wrong time.

So, I recently had a thought. Is it just me or Shanks and Shamrocks relationship ended up like Doflamingo and Rosinante? You know, because in both cases the good brother was rised away from "home": Shanks by rowdy but kind pirats and Rosinante by Marines while bad brother was rised by evil people: Shamrock by his father Holy Knight and Doflamingo by bunch of overreacting jerks that happened to be pirats. Also good brothers at some point returned home to extract some informations, left again and at some point meet children to which they became role models. They are really similar.

You know? I'm past Tea Party part of WCI and honestly the more I think about how much giants of Elbaf hate Big Mom the more I think that someone tried to scam her by introducing "fake Loki" to her. I mean it kinda makes sense because there's no way for her to check if he was real deal nor there's any possibility that she could know who Loki is. Also I don't think Loki himself would be interested in making any deals with her. My man have ears and I'm plenty sure he heard that giants were blaming his "curse" for what Big Mom did to Jorul back when she was child. I'm not quite sure how old Lola could be when Big Mom tried to merry her off to "Loki" (it could pretty early if she was ready to marry off Pudding at berely 16). The time line of Lokis "revange journey" could fit but since he seemed to be only interested in avenging his dad by sinking every Government ship he encountered it's still hard for me to believe he really wanted to get marry at some point. And to Big Moms dauther of all the womans in the world.

I finally got to Wano. I'm soo happy because I really missed the art style. Though I kinda forgot how long is Wano arc, it have well over 150 episodes but at least it's almost pure epicness with amazing ending.
Anyway, regarding WCI arc. I'm glad that by the end events of that arc forced Germa to grow some respect for Sanji. It's great that they helped him, Luffy and co escape from Totto Land even though one of them got caught and rest had to come back with the rescue. Well good for Judge that his rescue mission happened at the same time as Blackbeard Pirats invasion. Made things easier for him. Although I never want to see Judge and his colorful brats again. Well, mayby exept Reiju she was the good one. During Revery part it was also incredibly satisfying to see Charlos being smited again. Man, I really hate that guy. Good thing that he's not around anymore.
