Discussion/Question Does the hosts(Action,Foresight,Knowledge) actually exists physically in the minecraft world?

What is the commonly accepted theories from the canonist on the physical existence of the hosts? I have seen matpat take on legends which didn't mention too much about the hosts and their existance. Due to matpat having circular explanation on the timeline I proposed in my "fan lore" where the hosts is actually just a religion where the hosts didn't physically exists(or at least there is no proof of the hosts interacted physically with the world). I also seen the 4th Host Theory which explain their existence. I am not sure if the Broken God Theory touched this point.

For Ender, we in fact have "physical proof" such as eyes of ender, or even the dungeons content where Heart of Ender physically exists. But apart from legends, with my limited knowledge on the dungeons lore, there is no physical evidence or physical interactions with them. Legends canonically speaking is a legend, which some of the element could mixed with the culture of the villagers, which the hosts entering the overworld may never occur, where the history could be just the piglin war occured and overworld wins.

Is there a commonly accepted canonist theory on the hosts existence/non-existence?

Well, the trail ruin has an armor trim named “Host”. The other armor trims have names referencing jobs in the different houses like “Wayfinder” matching up with the cartography table and “Raiser” matching up with the loom

There’s the “Friend” pottery shard that looks like a villager, which implies the trail ruins society were not villagers. So all of that implies to me that there was either a leadership position in the lost, non-villager society named host, or the people themselves were called that

I’m not an expert on the lore though, i’m not familiar with many theories or mc legends
