Well, legitimacy obviously does matter otherwise Varys would not have been trying to pass him off/establish him as Rhaeghar's heir. He is ultimately Varys's proof of concept of power being a shadow on the wall, that legitimacy can be constructed.

Yep. That's what I meant to say.

Narratively it would be better if he were false, but it would be beside the point in how it would play out.

I don't agree. I think we need to never find out, because it's not important. In what way does it change the story? would he not be the same character wether he's the son of Rhaegar or not? That's what I mean by legitimacy not mattering. Aegon is the same person wether he has royal blood or not. He's equally fit to rule.
