And the Nail happens to be in the hilt... ::)

Yes, Uriel could have walked across Lake Shore Drive and said "Invasion is off. Go back home, or I will make you. " Michael? Sure, he could too, or Gabriel. If they all had that kind of power - why would there be a dozen at the Carpenters' ? One would be plenty.

Because at some point Uriel is aware of a threat to the Carpenters which WILL require the intervention of dozens of Angels which means:-
(1) a direct attack by Lucifer; or
(2) all the Fallen in the Denarius get simultaneously released from their coins.
Sounds like the BAT to me.
The attack in Skin Game was mortal Humans in Nickys employ, the attack by Ethnui ditto. The Angels could do little in either case, so they are there for an anticipated attack where they will be useful.
That means Michael probably has more significance to come rather than as a mentor to Harry and the Knights, and Jim has been lying to us (yet again).
Michael Carpenter becomes the White God? Or at least his living Avatar. Was Uriel lending his grace to Michael foreshadowing of this? Michael didn’t explode or go mad in containing such power.

Hmmm.
As WAGs go, this seems remarkably likely.
Or -- free will being an imponderable, and rival Angelic-levels being hard to predict/foresee -- Uriel just sees possibilities he's taken preemptive steps to counteract/prevent.
Or -- just maybe -- Jim was sloppy. Could have been a "write this cool scene" without considering the ramifications.

It rather does, yes.
When you put it like that.

Well, Michael has been enjoying retirement with his wife & family. IIRC, Jim never actually promised that would go on into Michael's old age, uninterupted by any supernatural entanglements.
Harry's "major actions" have been once or twice a year, AFAICT. But I think Michael used to "answer the call" many times per year...
