It has been pointed out that Michiie himself was positively involved in the 'anti-Tokuso family' conspiracy as Mitsumura MIURA, who was also involved in the conspiracy of NAGOE, said, 'I should have assassinated Tokiyori by following Michiie's commands (during the conspiracy of NAGOE)' when he fell along with his older brother, Mitsumura MIURA, in the Hojo War.
なお、名越の陰謀にも関与していた三浦光村が後の宝治合戦で兄の三浦泰村とともに討たれた際に「（名越の陰謀の時に）道家の指示に従って時頼を討っておくべきだった」と悔やんだとされていることから、一連の「反得宗家」の陰謀に道家自身が積極的に関与していた可能性も指摘されている。
