Xplaya, Harti and Isaaq aren't even comparable both financially and politically. Practically, It is only Warsangeli that can match the so called wealthy of the Iidoors. A Hawala Dahabshiil, Qat Merchant, a nearly bankrupt Daallo Partnership whose owners are from diferent clans, won't sustain any war you enter with Harti. Your whole tribal economy will collapse if the Northern Hartis , esp Warsans, vacate Hargeisa. The Berbera port has been in decline relative to Bosaso. What more, more projects are to come in favor of the Harti's hegemony.
You are lucky that Adde Muse have divided the strength of Harti out of his war with Abdulahi Yusuf that left a trail of of blood in his mind, and that he is deeply convinced of Warsangali's support for A/Y that resulted in his swift losses.
For the Majeerteen, they are the wealthiest clan, and they can simply auction off the IDhwars and their SNM holdings in the overall Gross National income of Somalia.
