Not one of those 4 declarations out of 11 confederate states was an official act of statute.

Neither was Lee's letter of January 23, 1861 saying that the Union was meant to be perpetual, an official statute. It is still an important document.

Nobody denied that it was. You seem to be of the opinion though that they were among the only documents of any relevance and that they take precedent over the official statutory documents, the ordinances. That notion is just plain silly.
