Why did the committee not end up as you day was required? What took place when this alternative to an independent commission was voted upon along party lines? Not arguing, but do you know why the intended composition didn't happen?

I'm not sure. I think it was the decision of the committee Chairman, backed up by the party leadership. Your question is one that I would like a clear answer to.

I'd encourage you to look into the extensive news coverage on this topic. Coverage included NYT, WaPo, Washington Weekly, for many days as the process and potential members were suggested, blocked, and McCarthy stomped off into the sunset condeming Ms Cheney and Mr Adam K to purgatory. Many posting here have addressed this as well, particularly in sharing following HCR various LFAAs (see the archives). You may come to understand what is taking place and help you adjust your quicker look-sees.

I think it's reasonable to question whether the rump (no pun intended) committee lacks legitimate subpoena power.

Not really if you haven't done the basics of discovery. You seem to have questions but are unwillingness to research what is taking place. Good by.
