    Just because your generals don't have tons of command stars doesn't mean they aren't good generals. EB gives out tons of morale traits have a large affect on the battle. Command starts give units stats and morale boost within a certain radius of the general (weird no?), so we mostly use morale increasing traits which affect the whole army and don't give out weird stats bonuses. Finally, characters traits depend a lot more on the sort of character they are than what you do with them, it's not a simple "if I have my character perform action A they get trait B" its a lot more of interaction of events with inclinations and potentials.

    Yes, EBs traits are awesome. I just had a young general, who was known for his "doubtful courage". Then he had to fight a hard battle, with the enemy attacking from front and rear, where he performed some brave charges into the enemy. After the battle, the "doubtful courage" trait was removed, plus another "good commander" trait added and a heroic victory achieved.
