I actually dont watch the after the episode teaser. That being said this is the internet - I KNOW I will get spoiled on the previews so whatever.

The Iron Bank is in the boat with Gendry still. Even though the Iron Bank itself funded Stannis because of Cersei's bullshit in the show.

Who knows if they'll come up again at all.

Not sure if the show mentioned but the reason they're funding Stannis is because Cersei stopped paying them. The Iron Bank called all of its debts in Westeros and refused to lend any money to anyone. The economy is extra fucked because of it.

But we know the children of summer won't settle for an empty plot of land in which they'd have to build their own house. They all think they deserve a castle!

Kind of feels like the Iron Bank was written by some fat old dude who had no understanding of how banking actually works.

Iron Bank isn't a very well run bank.

It seems like he was going for a whole "Rothschild's funding both sides of the war" thing, but in this case it would end with the Rothschild's being broke.

No. You're misunderstanding the scope. Book Iron Bank is THE Bank for all of Free Cities and they all fear it. Braavos is the most powerful of the Free Cities and if Volantis or something doesn't pay up. The Iron Bank funds rebellions and undermines them to get someone in power to get their money back.

In Westeros Cersei outright refused to pay them. So they fund Stannis and cause economic collapse in the Seven Kingdoms.

Both should probably be weighed on a case by case basis really. The episode descriptions are almost always vague enough to hint at least a couple of different possibilities but occasionally some would probably be best wrapped in a spoiler tag. Casting announcements run a broader spectrum because it comes down to the individuals in question. Some of the roles are very narrow and knowing a particular actor will be appearing can have fairly specific implications. Dropping an Ian Mcshane scheduled appearance for this season, for example, would be very different from mentioning that Michelle Fairly (Cat Stark) would be showing up at some point even though both of their characters have died.

This is true to some degree, although the Cat Stark one would be an asterisk for obvious reasons (the books). But a lot of the actors have still been used the following season after they die, either for burial rights, or because Arya needs their face to murder the rest of their family. Flashbacks as well could be a thing going forward with Bran's story line.
