After rewatching tlok i'm still holding on to my theory that Omashu either was a lion turtle city in the past or still is a lion turtle city and the turtle is just dormant (or dead, which is more morbid but still possible)
If you compare the design of Omashu to the design of multiple lion turtle cities, they both appear to be very stacked cities, with buildings across all different heights. They're both circular cities as well.
The origin tale of Omashu dates from around the conception of earthbending, which we now know to be about 10.000 years prior to Korra's time (aka Wan's time). Oma, the woman from the story, is said to be the first earthbender. Lion turtles granted people the ability to bend, which both Oma and Shu used to make the secret tunnel leading to and away from the city. The difference is, Oma and Shu learned the technique from badgermoles, which is why they were considered so powerful. (Just like Wan, who learned from the dragon during his time away from the city).
There's a very real possibility that there was a war within the turtle city (we saw all the class problems in Wan's city, and humans are gonna human) and in order to escape the war, Oma and Shu asked the turtle for earthbending so they could escape and be together safely.
On the avatar wiki, it also explains that after the era of the spirits, during the era of the Avatar, the lion turtles got hunted into near extinction. Some turtles chose to hide, like the turtle Aang came across in the show who chose to pose as an island. Earth lion turtles are able to bury themselves into the ground. Omashu could very well be an earth turtle that's buried underground to hide from society, and because so much time has passed history turned into myth.
I know it's a loose theory but i just can't get over the fact that the history of earthbending near Omashu and then the history of lion turtles seems to contradict but also align so well. It makes sense that the two lovers were granted the ability of earthbending from their own turtle and then learned how to use it from the badgermoles.

No one else has said it so I’m going to
The fact that they made the Air Nation women hijabis in LOK means so much to me.
I mean they made the women of air,,,the element of freedom,,,, hijabis,,,, they’re the only true allies. I wish we had gotten a scene in AtLA where Aang had a bit of a flashback/emo moment upon seeing a woman wear a headscarf.

Spirit World Shenanigans
Kyoshi: Guys, there’s a monster under my bed and it’s really ugly.
Wan, on the bottom bunk: Honestly, f*ck you.
-----
Roku: Many people are mildly dehydrated and don’t realize it. You should drink at least six glasses of water per day.
Korra: No, eight glasses!
Aang: I heard ten.
Kyoshi: You need to drink at least five glasses of water per minute.
later…
Wan: Okay, I just read through every study I could find to try to figure out whether low-grade dehydration is even a real thing.
Roku: What did you learn?
Wan: If you spend all day doing research and forget to eat or drink, you start to feel pretty bad.
Korra: I’ll get some water.
Wan: But how many glas–whoa, feeling dizzy.
Kuruk: Maybe you should just drink straight from the tap.
-----
Rise of Kyoshi be like:
Yangchen: Well, Kyoshi, is there anything you would like to say to Kuruk?
Kyoshi: How do I put this delicately? You’re a horrible Avatar and nobody likes you.
Yangchen: How about we frame our statement with “When you do this, it makes me feel this”?
Kyoshi: When you exist, it makes me angry. Because you’re a horrible Avatar and nobody likes you.
