The one area I would want to debate is Mr. Nebojsa and the book.
The number of keys matters, if for no reason other than the pilot episode introduced the keys and the Royals as an integral element of the Grimm storyline - seven royal families / seven keys.
Mr. Nebojsa may have survived to such a ripe old age because he wasn’t a Kelly Burkhardt type of Grimm. KB is brawn with a military/combat mind-set, seeking out and eliminating problems. Perhaps Mr. Nebojsa, having sufficient cunning to operate under the radar, took a more cerebral approach, gathering and cataloguing useful information for current and future Grimm.
It could be interesting to imagine Mr. Nebojsa’s life, but with twenty-two episodes the show had sufficient time to properly explore Mr. Nebojsa, newly discovered information of the keys’ history, Juliette’s transformation into Eve, Meisner becoming an HW operative, the Wesen uprising and the evolution of HW & BC. Of course, devoting time to the actual season arc wouldn’t have left room for Wesen of the week episodes completely disconnected from the season arc or a virus turning one of the last two humans on the show into a Wesen.
Later we must come to the fact if and I do mean IF the royals had 4 but now Nick has 5 how is the count working? We know because they ended up in the right place Nick's 5 were true Grimm keys, not faked.
For debate how does the number come into play? The box had 7 key holes so there were to start with 7 keys. How do you see the keys total number?
