Yeah I always thought it showed the reader that there really isn't any true extreme in the book. No complete good, no complete evil. No complete lawful or proud person either. Showing Tywin's extreme family honor (if you can call it that) and family pride as being total bullshite shows that even the characters that seem to have the most entrenched ideals are subject to breaking those ideals.

The whole magic and religion stuff bothers me too.
Okay, the lord of light obviously has some magical powers and is tied to the dragons somehow but it's kind of a dick god because if you don't accept R'hllor as the one true god, you're an agent of darkness.
Then there's the weirwoods, old gods, greenseers, children of the forest... They have some working magical powers too and are maybe associated with warging and seeing the future similar to the way the light frickers see stuff in the flames but through dreams.
Then there's the faith of the seven which just seems like a water downed newer religion without a lot of the magic. However, dumbass Cersei officially reinstated both orders of the Faith Militant as a concession to the new High Septon. They will likely be major players in the end game being the dominant religion in Westeros.
The Many-Faced God, death god worshiped by assassins.
Then you have all the other cult religions like the drowned god, storm god, god of tits and wine.
It's all very confusing.
