Absense of evidence is traditionally met with doubt, not with certainty that the evidence can and will be produced at some subsequent point.

But Turos, for example, is not recognised as or worshipped as an aspect of Lodril. He may well be a manifestation of the same power (indeed he clearly is, surely), but that's not to say he's a manifestation of _Lodril_: rather, Lodril might be argued to be the primary manifestation of that power. (We could also reopen the original bunfight as to whether Lodril is a "Greater God" in the RQ3 sense, aka whether this is a core rune/high power of Glorantha...)
> I haven't seen a myth where Ernalda shares the Lower Heavens
The "proof" to the Tarsh earth priestesses that their goddess and [insert appropriate lunar high power or manifestation here] are one must have involved some such rationalisation or demonstration. (Or worse, "mystical understanding"...)

Since Yelmalio was "accidentally" reached by "strange" experiences during initiation to Elmal, an extremely close similarity of religious practice seems to be indicated.
