I'm curious why you think that nothing could have changed when archaeology clearly shows a rapid burst in the Judahite population as a result of the Assyrian campaign against "Israel" ( or the House of Umri) and Philistia?
And I am going to have to start replying to you in virtual sound bites because otherwise you divide posts up into multi-quotes which, frankly, annoys the living fuck out of me. So, one at a time.
