I never discounted the contributions of other people. All I said was that Percy's contribution was the maximum, and if you take that out, the Titans easily gain the upper hand.

No, even if Percy, Thalia and Nico weren't born, someway or the other, the Titans would rise. Kronos was putting his essence together since being chopped off. If it wasn't Luke, it would be someone else Kronos manipulated, and he manipulated plenty.

Once delivered, prophecies have to happen. They are flexible and can be interpreted in many different ways. In Percy Jackson's Greek Gods, Percy (or rather Riordan) mentions how the Fates write the fates of even the gods. So technically, if they break the oath, the root cause would be the Fates.
