I disagree on the final paragraph. The Emperor gradually wanted to distance Himself from leadership and remove the primarch`s role completely. Insted He would have only attended the issues demanding His attention, whilst leaving the less difficult and more managable ones to the High Council of Terra, which he would overshadow and make sure there are no `cowardly bureacrats` and only capable individuals. The reaons the imperium is like that in 40k is because its crucial players are missing, when they come back...
