I think the Criticisms of season 7 are the reason the books aren't done yet. It's hard to write a fulfilling conclusion without making a few of these types of plot advancing maneuvers.

I think Martin is stuck and likely had a very similar outline to what was done by the show runners. He now has the opportunity to make things better but I'm not sure a different set of arbitrary decisions makes it a better show.

I do think things are well set up for the last season though as the board is well set up to not require the arbitrary nature of the moves seen last season.
