There was no such thing as "Greek Epirot" at the time. What would today be considered a Greek was then a citizen of the Roman Empire. Epirus was a regional term. The reason why Scanderbeg is called an "Epirot" is because western Latin writers started calling Albs "Epirots". If you wish to argue this, we already have a topic where this was being done. I could continue from there. The Seal is not from Scanderbeg's era: bjoerna.dk/albansk-historie/Seal-of-Scanderbeg.htmMaybe the seal was 'designed' when Scanderbeg was organising a crusade against the Osmans, maybe it was manufactured when Scanderbeg served as a vassal to the King of Naples. Probably the seal was commissioned of the family of Scanderbeg some time in the 16th century. You cannot know exactly. Even, it is not to say whether the seal is a fake (from the 15th or 16th century). PS: The family of Scanderbeg(The Castriota-Scanderbeg) speaks as a representative of the Italo-Albanian(Arberesh) community in Italy, they dont speak of any Greek origin. It was even proposed that they should have become the Royalty of Albania at one point in the early 20th century. I dont see why yout talking out of your ass still when out discussion is still going on.

Why should I against my will do that? He deserved to die after all the anti-Albanian propaganda he spread during his lifetime.

The fact that there is a nationality today called Albanians (not even 100 years old as such) surely has no bearing on events back from 13 century. If anything reverse parallels could be made. Albanians are mentioned long before the creation of Albania 1912 and there has been a numerous Albanian states since the Middle Ages.
