And you do remember Tywin's dying words? "You're no son of mine."
That's what sticks out in my mind. I had thought that Tyrion might be the product of Tywin being cuckolded by Aerys (or Aerys raping Tywin's wife). It's pretty clear that Tyrion's mom was in fact Tywin's wife, and with all of the stories of Tyrion's birth anything else just wouldn't seem right. If Tywin knew, he might keep it a secret to avoid the embarrassment to his house, but it's clear that - even for all his talk of family and bloodline - he despised Tyrion.
Also, Tyrion not being Tywin's actual son means Tyrion is not the occursed kinslayer, which preserves his ability to play a major role.
The thing I can't jibe with Tywin knowing Tyrion is not his own blood is the Tysha story where I think he specifically tells Tyrion he is a Lannister.

Yeah, but you are forgetting that Tywin would not remotely put up with a slight like that on his house. If Aerys raped his wife, he would have immediately resigned as Hand of the King and been the first to join Robert's Rebellion. And Tywin would have almost certainly killed Tyrion if he knew he wasn't his son. He would have made it look like an accident of course, maybe put some poison in his ear, but he would have killed Tyrion as soon as his wife died. Its not like it would have been hard to get away with.
