This one was news to me too; I'm just going by our Lunar Experve's gently lobbed hand-grenade that this was a difference between Humakt's "mere death" (as separation) and Shargash's "destruction".

They'd simply see ZZ as death (of an undisciplined and revoltingly dishonourable, etc), and Oakfed as primarily Disorderly, I'd have thought. I wouldn't see either of them being associated with capital-D Destruction, as a different cosmic principle. (But I'm fresh out of yarrow sticks, so I might have enumerated my Fundamental Cosmic Principles incorrectly.)
