I don't understand your idea.
Perhaps you could make a clear list, what's blue and what's green according your opinion.
Generally the "plinth", as you call it, has naturally the character of a "meta-communication of some content". 4 Kings + 4 Queens + the 4 big rulers are classified this way.
The "triumphal chariot with the bride" has a somewhat "raised plinth", okay.
The Magician ... ????
In another older jungle of the Michelino deck we've 12 Olympian gods (+ 4 Kings, not to forget, though not trumps), and then 4 smaller trumps with a natural center "Daphne", which is actually a resisting bride, defending her virginity, the whole somehow similar to "4 Kings + 4 Queens + the 4 big rulers + bride" in the Bembo cards.
The other 3 in Michelino dek are Amor (we see him at 6 Love), Aiolus, who stands for the trumpet and that's "Fame" (highest trump? Judgment with trumpet ?) and the ultimate "human hero", which is Hercules.
The destiny of the Magician in Tarot rules it is, that it is the "Petit", the smallest trump, but it is honored with 5 worthwhile points, when he fulfills his chances to survive in the own hand. And it is very successful, when it wins the last trick ... then it gets further rewards.
Somehow a true Hercules, an hero with a risky life.
The only not fitting place in a comparison would be, that you've a Fortuna and I would suggest the Judgment from the view on the Michelino deck.
....
... .-) ... In Alberti's theatre play the wrong hero Fortunatus finally got Fame as his bride, but the true hero gets something like Gloria.
