I can understand Georgine hating her mother and brother for being forced to give up being an archduke candidate—after training hard to become one—and get married off to Ahrensbach. Even Rihyarda has sympathy for her. We don't really know what her circumstances were like in Ahrensbach, she may have had good reason to get rid of the other archduke family members, or maybe she was just broken at that point. But there's a big difference between taking revenge on the people who wronged you and genocide.
If Letizia were old enough then I'd agree that she'd be best to take the lead, but she's not even close to entering the Royal Academy. Ferdinand has been building a good rapport with the people of Ahrensbach. I think almost everyone—including Detlinde's retainers—would prefer him to lead over Detlinde at this point.
