Because Tywin understands that monopolizing political power doesn’t work in feudal societies, and knows that you need to spread the land around to keep everyone on the inside of the coalition.
I know you addressed the reason why Tywin made Littlefinger Lord Paramount of the Riverlands instead of the Freys but why didn’t he give it to Kevan (or even another Lannister cousin)? He could rule from Darry or something like that and he’d be a lot more reliable than Littlefinger.
