I seem to recall a previous discussion I had (that involved Chrischa?) that briefly covered something along these lines, so will search for that before I contribute overly much here.
I do think that Beloved had a pivotal role though, despite that it may appear the opposite at times, and he/she often even conceded that all others (whether in the form of a human, dragon, liveship, animal etc) held a pivotal role in their own life and also the unfolding of the history of the world...they did not have to be a WP or Catalyst to create vast change. Something specific was said by Amber in SOM to do with this, I think, but I am unable to reference it at present.
Oh, I just LOVE chatting about the books!
