Just out of interest, here are some other views, from different people over the years. I'm sure there are many more. 

Some interesting points made there. There's also a lengthy piece written by Chris McKeon, giving his thoughts on various things. One short section, near the bottom states


 * In regards to “The Dark Path”, that story deals with the potential origins of the Master, the War Chief is simply a pre-Delgado incarnation of the Master; they are not intrinsically contradictory. In regards to “Timewyrm: Exodus”, the seventh Doctor meets the Master (as Kriegsleiter) out-of-order, exactly as the eighth Doctor does with the Delgado Master in “Legacy of the Daleks”. In regards to “Divided Loyalties”, the early years of the Deca are in a dream sequence, which are not always totally literal in Doctor Who fiction,

None of those people are me. There's a lot to take int there. Some stuff said there wouldn't be valid here, but it may have some help with this discussion.
