Several things stuck me on re-watching this:
Delenn being amazing
Someone using a fire extinguisher to put out the fires in C&C (just in the background while Sheridan is giving orders)
How selfish Sheridan was to break the comms blackout to contact his family without letting anyone else do so
The reflections of the Major on the impact of the civil war (knowing the people on the other side) -- as for us we don't know or see the other side

The other thing was wondering if the Vorlons had some ships lurking nearby so that they could save B5 if needed... given that they are now committed to the alliance and Sheridan and Delenn as leaders.... and that the treaties would give then an excuse.

Maybe the Vorlons looked on it as yet another test. If they lost the battle they weren't the right people in the right place at the right time. Vorlons play a long game.

Maybe - you can never tell with Vorlons.
