IIRC, Tolkien notes in the letters that the witch king has been reduced to impotence, while Gandalf state that the nazgul stand or fall by their master. I would say all evidence point to the nazgul becoming insignificant after the fall of Sauron (not even Sauron is great enough to recover). As for the rest of your post, I will simply note my disagreement and leave it at that.

There is a difference between debating the differing views of an obscure point and inserting wildly and radically non-canonical points that fly in the face of well established and thoroughly documented sources. Open minded scientists may well differ as to whether light consists of particles or waves, but they will not waste time with the theory of a McDonald's grease-jockey that postulates that light consists of macaroni and cheese.

As Squatter has noted (and as LH has taken the hint) such theories are better discussed in the Mirth forum, where the point is being discussed in a lively fashion even now.
