Morgan fought in the trenches of WWI.
I'm not aware of confirmation whether that was before or after he acquired his powers.

Mother Winter and Mother Summer would have been in control of things before Mab and Tatiana

Mother SUmmer has retired once, Mother Winter never.
Whather that's relevant is another matter.

During Fool Moon Bob says you still need inherited silver to kill a Loup-Garou. That rule hasn't changed since an undisclosed date.

Despite the workout it got with the binder, investing that much money in a circle seems slightly wasteful at the moment

I would argue that as of Grave Peril Harry should have his second violation. He agonizes and rationalizes considerably about the possible mortal casualties in the fire. Sue on the other hand was under his control and there were few mortals left in the area. Unless someone was sitting in a car she stepped on which is a danger that could not be directly assumed from the nature of the spell. A bomb is an uncontrolled device meant to kill anyone in the area regardless of status since RCVs feed on mortals it can be assumed that any gathering of them worthy of a bomb will contain some mortals. Calling them "acceptable" losses does not make them unintentional. Anyone whose soul would not be stained by their deaths is already a sociopath and should be an NPC anyway.

Why couldn't people play sociopathic villains if they want to?

The Strength powers outdistance the equivalent Toughness powers on purpose. So, no apologies there.

Armor simply isn't a 1:1 thing when you're talking about gritty modern stuff. Even in real life, so-called "bulletproof" vests still often result in a cracked rib when you get shot center mass by a decently-sized round. There's a point at which, especially when you're talking about units of measure as large and abstract as the ones we use, that layering doesn't really help. I think that's even the case with supernatural defenses - if you've got an Armor:1 innate toughness, but you've encased yourself in Armor:3 protection, the big number is the one that matters, dramatically speaking. (Hell, I could even see that as a way of dealing with the Catch, for some beings.)

I could have gone with a Cyberpunk 2020-esque solution, but that would have resulted in a lot of fractions and rounding, which would have pretty much put us at the equivalent of no stacking anyway.

Magical/mundane armour should stack, if you wear kevlar/steelplate over your enchanted tshirt that should decrease the energy your tshirt has to deal with resulting in the equivalence of a stacking effect. Of course which kinds of damage gets through should also matter.
