True. But we are playing a game (or maybe we're not?). There's a balance to be struck between the political correctness of having different names for mythically similar gods and (while accepting there is no monomyth) having a recognisable, accessible, and fun game. But please don't ask me where that balance should be struck, and how similar those gods really are...
