One thing to remember at this point is that 'the Crown' is not one person
(er, or rather one couple).  Even with the most optimistic timeline, the
Crown who would grant the Principality has yet to be determined.  What
powers the Crown ultimately delegates to the Prince/ess will be determined
by the Principality in cooperation with the Kingdom officers and the
Crowns who reign between then and now.  As such it should (hopefully) be a
compromise that both parties find agreeable.
