We have myths from peoples other than Lokamayadon and Harmast, such as the current myth of the month. We even have some Vingkotling era myths (published in Tentacles 1 & Enclosure 2). And Harmast and Lokaymadon were more respectful of the myths than you suggest.

I never said they survived unchanged, I said they existed in roughly the same form, which allows some scope for change (such as the change from Orlanth the Lifebringer into Orlanth the Lightbringer).
