My theory is the original plan was to have Trystane remain in king's landing and become one of cersei's enemies and then ultimately die alongside the others at the sept of baelor and this would eventually push doran into committing dorne to war but then they decided they didn't have enough time to develop trystane properly and so had oberyn's line launch a coup to seize house martell instead. Its quicker.

Much as I don't care for the two eldest sand snakes, I'd rather see them legitimized than House Martell die out. I guess the best of all worlds would be for ellaria and the eldest three to be executed and the other sand snakes legitimized...
