Each stakeholder group had their own means to discuss and debate the merits and had them rolled into CPE who in turn analysed them and published the full story list.

That is nuts, no agile process I've ever heard of does it that way.
Part of the job of a product owner and project manager is to filter
these down, determine the merits of them, and determine the importance
of them after that. If you don't do that, you'll be bogged down in
useless requirements effectively forcing decisions for you.

We done that as a Management team and with our Product Owner among other stakeholders. We did evaluate the merit of the requirements from a practicality perspective but we did not question or force our opinion on the validity of their asks, as we respect that it serves some demographic of their stakeholder group. I don't feel it's appropriate for one stakeholder group to criticise or attack the merits of a requirement from another group, that's the essence of my point.
