The command one is for the hiers, the accuman too I guess (never seen it on this trait), the piety one caused by a bit too many jihads affects the king (well sultan, Can be tested if 9 piety kings that wins a crusade get 0 piety), the influence one affects the king, but here he regains it by himself.

All clearer now?

Or are the 20 already won counted in?
Haven't lost enough with good generals to be certain (I don't think I've lost a star on a veteran commander), all I can say is that one loss doesn't usually matter much, but if it's the same as in Shogun, multiple losses hurts badly, but the 20 victories will be counted in and work as a buffert for 1-2 losses before you'll lose that star.

I suspect it was up to -7, but getting more than -3 is practically impossible (first you must lose, then the general mustn't commit seppuku).
