I kinda liked that the creators just gave us little hints about Iroh the elder's past, so we could fill in the gaps ourselves. I'd definitely be interested to know about your headcanon for him.
I figured General Iroh had to be a grandson because of how young he looked, but I love your initial headcanon! I can imagine either they stuck with one (which I imagine the Fire Nation people would have protested about in case they had another Lu Ten) or went with more than two. Zuko would be way too paranoid that two kids would somehow turn into his relationship with Azula. I agree about Iroh though. I don't think anyone would approve the Crown Prince taking over the equivalent of the UN military.
