Yes they are, the Sylilan border runs north of the Erinflarth and includes Dara-Ni which has many Darjiini in it, despite the best efforts of Alkoth.
>G:CotHW says that Sylila has 400k inhabitants.
Yes, but this figure ignores the 380k and 600k in Saird, part of which as to be added to Sylila. I estimate Sylila at around 800k in total.

Maximum is around 20k for a large city.

Sounds good.

Very
few Rufelza, Hwarin is a small cult, but certainly 7Ms and the other Lunar
classic cults, the rest seems about right.

Agreed! Don't forget that Sylila was a bulwark against Sheng and has strong defences and a military history second to none. The city has a large river port and a strong naval squadron is based there. The sylilan army is very powerful and the Satraps can project power into many areas, particularly the Provinces and Talastar. It is a hub city with a proud culture.
