The way you show his forces being stretched too thin is basically by showing everything that slipped through the cracks. Which is what we got. We got the North being attacked with no one coming to their aid. It wasn't that the Jabari overcame the Wakandan military in the north to terrorize those woman... it's that they got zero support from the government while it was happening. The govenment at the time simply couldn't do what it ideally needed to. Hence the Doras picking up the slack.
It's pretty obvious. He should not of done that with Storm. Not only in doing that did he throw T'Challa and Wakanda under the bus for a cheap ass pull at the very end of the arc, but it's something that nowhere else even acknowledges even happened. Hell actually I take that back, I think in an xbook they took a pot shot at that. BP isn't the book to be focusing and giving all these feats to characters who don't even belong to the mythos. So far feats have been given to Eden Storm and freaking Thunderball. Also rise was done by Evan narcisse and he was making all the continuity consolidated over the years
Regardless of what truly happened between them, I do not see a happily ever after for them. In issue #5, she optimistically claimed that it was not too late for them to have a future once he is whole again. However, with the current issue, where T'Challa, who has all of is memories back, was going to apologize for not further being willing to entertain this fantasy of being with her. In my perspective, this was his newfound decision or a response to what she once said. T'Challa was basically saying that he is no longer not playing with a full deck and that Nakia is regrettably not a priority card to play for the future direction of his life unlike his family, his kingdom and Storm.
Indeed. The author clearly has an high opinion of her and it shows when he listed some of Black Panther's accomplisments, only one was not a combat feat/outmaneuvering feat and it was having Ororo Munroe beside him on the throne.
The real reason that it is an accomplisment is more likely what you said. Storywise, I believe those responsible for this compilation were just grateful with a trace of bias for what she had done recently for the country. Other than that, I was perplexed when I read this specific part back then.

"Feats" is a strange way to measure the quality of a book.
"Wakandans are warriors, not poets and philosophers"
Says who? The most advanced civilization on earth that doesnt have a war hungry country and warriors that are for self defense is going to be more prone to intellectual discussion than not. They arent a bunch of football players.
