Unfortunately, it's also conjecture to say that a nunh has absolutely no soft power and can't be a slimy bastard because the tribal leaders would keep him in check, since the devs have not said anything on the issue. Presumably, most Seeker territories can't be that way, or the society would have ripped itself apart given the ready alternative of the city-states, but even that is conjecture. While there is one territory of one tribe in game, it's variant compared to other sources of lore (in that instance, the nunh does hold leadership authority, which dev post lore specifies is rare), so extrapolating from it is complicated.
So, ultimately, on this specific topic (how nunh behave in practice), we're all making conjectures in a grey area of lore, whether it be from our interpretation of lore posts, an argument from anthropology, or an argument from biology (which isn't on this thread, but has been floated on these forums before). What's nice about that freedom is that it gives our characters lots of ways to have unique backstories and to generate RP from those backstories.
