Without a doubt. I will not contest this. In fact, I hinted at it in one of my previous replies. While the Syndicate have no authority to order the Sultansworn around, I am sure every Paladin is sure to tread lightly around them for the very reason that they could hold a vote and force Namano to take action and discipline them.
It's a position of mutual respect. The Sworn stay out of their way, and they allow the organization to continue to exist.
At the same time, if Nanamo ever grew a spine, she could theoretically order her Sultansworn to round up and kill the entire Syndicate. She could use them and literally seize back full control of the city. But she does not do this for many reasons (They are outnumbered by blades, the economy would collapse, there would be immense political blowback, etc).
