On a related note, doesn’t the premise of seeking intercession from those labeled saints profane the premise of there being one and only one Intercessor?

Likely. I understand Catholics officially view it as asking someone to pray for you. The problem is, the Bible says those who are dead are “asleep”. Doesn’t sound like they can here us. There’s an example in the OT of someone who tried to talk to the dead. Didn’t work out well for him.
