My 'nitpick' is that Tyrion, who we've been led to believe is a pretty smart lad, failed to recognize what was obvious to Jaime - Highgarden was the key to everything for the Lannisters. They were incapable of waging war without it.
Now the question becomes how the hell Dany and her crew are going to do so? They have pretty much no way to support their armies now. They either have to take Highgarden back or take Kings Landing immediately. Hell, even taking Kings Landing only works if the Lannisters eventually give up Highgarden and agree to be ruled by Dany.
Kings Landing can't support itself without provisions from the reach and the westerlands.

Yeah, Tyrion should have known especially since he was the master of coin. What he didn't know was how much they borrowed from the iron bank while daddy Tyrell was hand. So that is fairly excusable he didn't know EXACTLY how broke they are. And given how proud Cersei is to be a Lannister it makes sense to think she would defend her ancestral home.
But it really was a lot of cunning from Jamie.
As far as who still has the upper hand, there is no way the Lannisters can eradicate Dany. Even if ever soldier she has dies, she can just hole up in DragonStone and dare anybody to attack.

So Dany basically has no ships left now, right? How are the Unsullied getting back to Dragonstone?

Amtrack man. It's how everybody cruises around the continent in no time.
In theory, it should be valuable, because she should be able to fly to Casterly Rock and smoke Euron because she then would know where and when he was at a place and can work backward from there.
