Not everything needs to be spoonfed to you, it's the village that is the entrance to Elbaf's castle and also where the majority of named giants live, and the Straw Hats getting there was their welcome to Elbaf as a whole, those three things objectively make it the main village, if you can't understand that then it's down to your lack of reading comprehension.
So it's your head canon at the end. Got it.
 
Okay Marx/marks was drawn, but Oda did say only the important members, and Oden only joined at the end.

He wasn't ever rented though...
Cope. If Oden was a full-fledged member, he'd be an important one. He wasn't drawn because he's not a full-fledged member. I mean come on dude, you really think Oda went out of his way to draw 20 irrelevant fodders, but forgot about Oden (also why are Inu and Neko conveniently not included)?

Didn't Oda forget to draw the gears right or something in an actual chapter? I think it's possible he just ended up drawing the Roger pirates he created in his head 20 years ago for an SBS. It doesn't change the fact that Oden is obviously a member of the crew in the manga, since he tried getting Franky to join and reached Laughtale. Inu and Neku weren't at Laughtale, so I don't think they really count

WB only let Oden go on the condition that he returns after Roger finds LT. He was a rental. Only reason he didn't go back to the WBPs is because of the trouble in Wano

WB and Roger never made an actual agreement though, that was just an offer. Oden just chose to leave, and the idea that he was planning on returning to the WBP after the Wano shit is over seems a bit silly. He didn't even try to contact them, and do you actually think he would have abandoned his family to go sail with the WBP again? Nah, he just left the WBP, and when the Roger pirates dissolved, he wasn't really in any crew
