I've thought about that question for a long time, and I reached a conclusion: both sides were Cabal controlled.
On the Abe Lincoln side: you have an ambitious individual and monolithic federal government. On the Jefferson Davis side: you have a series of fragmented states that lack central authority. A classic situation in which the cabal would benefit in either circumstance. (Hegelian dialectic.)
We've both seen how the federal government route has played out, but the country remained united as a bulwark. If the confederacy had won, then each state would have been conquered in succession. Lincoln likely saw this worse outcome and sought to avert it. (Solve et coagula.)
As much as he was an ambitious tyrant, Abe did a good thing through the preservation of the union.

Edit: Also, England was funding the confederacy.
The South had the North by the throat in the early days and Stonewall Jackson had a plan to go capture Lincoln and that would end the conflict.
But they chose to avoid fighting a war, the North became more powerful and thats all she wrote.
Otherwise I agree with all your points.
