Good points!
Clyntahn was made Inquisitor General about 20 years ago, so putting his type of intendants on the islands is quite likely as you point out; OTOH, Safeholdians are relatively long lived given their ordered healthy diet and exercise regimen, so those that were already there might have been left in place because those island nations weren't considered the threat Charis was.
I suspect RFC will deal with this in a couple sentences or a paragraph at most in the next book or two.

And of course Samuel Wylsynn arranged for his son to be exiled to Charis by Clyntahn, a fact that Clyntahn has conveniently forgotten. It's not clear if he was able to arrange for other similar inclined individuals to be exiled to other of the outer islands.
