The logo thing is irrelevant, but if part of your campaign is striving for gender equality you would probably want to show the end result rather than the beginning.

Is there any truth to the Lost Causer/States' Rights claims that the South was on the verge of abolishing slavery themselves? Seems to me like you wouldn't go to war over a thing you're about to get rid of anyway.

Didn't the CSA have aspirations of conquering Mexico/South America and establishing a White Supremacist Empire?

Not even the CSA, some southern democrats issued the Ostend manifesto in the early 50s saying Cuba should be annexed ASAP to expand slavery to it.

another problem with the continued existence of the CSA is that it was unpopular, like all of the slaves would have found very good reason to escape to the north asap but many white southerners rejected secession as well and the 1864 southern landscape was rotten with deserters, bandits, and military police militias all sniping at each other, so there would almost certainly be a large exodus of southern whites from the border states to the north if not the unsecession of chunks of states like tennessee triggering civil war 2

Georgia's governor threatened to secede from the Confederacy several times during the war. Most hilarious were the ones from during Sherman's Georgia campaign.
