Imo Lodestar IS that site of confrontation. It might be redundant in finding Road Poneglyphs but its symbolism in being the last island normal people can reach makes sense to me that the Burned Scar Man and 4th RP might be found and fought over here by everyone.
The only "real" question is if Teach's group actually makes it to Laugh Tale along with Luffy after this, and if Oda wants to have their fight there or not.
Ultimately though he cant write around the RP war he's already set up since post Wano, and that HAS to come before LT.

Before meeting the man with the flame scar, I can easily see a scene similar to Jaya : where Blackbeard’s crew tries to catch Luffy’s crew, but the Knock Up Stream begins, and they escape.
There will be a chase toward the man with the flame mark between Blackbeard’s crew and the Straw Hat crew, and in the end, Blackbeard’s crew will be left behind by the whirlpools created by the Black Ship.
