Tyrion, almost literally, single-handedly beat Stannis with his bombs and troop assignments. That Tywin had to struggle to give him even the barest of note for that shows how much of a douchebag Tywin truly is. It's a very odd blindspot for him though because his entire being is centered around using anything that brings more gold and glory to the Lannister name. Normally I think he would snatch up someone so clever, but his intense hatred and disgust of Tyrion makes him not just blind to it, but absolutely REFUSE to see it.
i agree with all you said. it's hard to believe that tywin can't overlook whoring for a son that is actually a good strategist and a much better leader of men than his grandson who in essence started this whole shite storm with killing ned.
sure, stannis would probably still rise up but if the lannisters could've somehow kept the starks on their side and hence the north, there wouldn't be much of a war.
that said, tyrion seems at his best when the chips are down and when he goes against his family. i guess tywin's spurning of him will lead to some cool tyrion being a smartass/badass stuff. so i'm ok with it. really interested to see where his story arc goes. (and hope to the 7 gods that bronn stays with him, they are an awesome pair to watch)

It seems Tywin legitimately believes Tyrion is at fault for killing his mom/Tywins wife.
That or Tywin is so egotistical that he is quite literally ashamed that he could have produced an imp.
