Didn't Fiona get cured of the taint? That being the case, then clearly it is possible to overcome the effects of the joining. Also Morrigan had not trouble conceiving from a Warden, so again there are ways around the effects of the joining. If it is so important for a Therin to continue on the throne then I'd imagine magic could be employed to ensure it.
However, so far as the Landsmeet were concerned, keeping a Therin on the throne did not seem that important to them. They went with whoever the Warden nominated. My Cousland noble always thought he was more entitled to rule than Alistair, particularly as the latter always stated he didn't want it. If he failed to have any offspring then I imagine he would persuade Anora to nominate his nieces and nephews as heirs. Fergus may have lost his first family but he would no doubt marry again and if you spare Nathaniel then he also saves Fergus' life at a future date. The Civil War only came about because Eamon stirred up the other nobles to object to Loghain's regency. Otherwise they would likely have accepted matters. The most important thing to the people of Ferelden is staying free from Orlesian rule, not keeping a Therin on the throne. If Cailan had lived and gone through with his idiotic plan to marry Celene, then that probably would have resulted in him being ousted in favour of Anora.
