Peter was far from the first to speak. His words are the recorded words, but I agree, the scripture points to a debate that is not recorded.
a pastoral letter from one Church to another
Cortinth is not in Roman bishopric. The letter is a demand, not an advice. Have you read it? The papal supremacy is likened there to Aaron pulling the larger stick from among the 12 tribal priests.

Also, since I just recommended reading the Letter of Clement, I might as well provide a link: Letter to the Corinthians (Clement)

Yes, I have read it, every word. Have you?
First Chapter - first paragraph: The Church of God which sojourns at Rome, to the Church of God sojourning at Corinth,
No demand. Not a demand at all. It was beseeching if anything.
