What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

Just going to add this to support your argument (and attempt to get this thread back on topic :P):

WOW, now THAT slipped under my own radar :P Nice catch!

So that means even herself could have somewhat helped if she had really intended to instead of sitting on her high horse, instead of becoming a 2nd judge in the "judgment of humanity".

I believe it was if the creation was to be released into greater Etheirys. Hermes subverted that by sending the Meteia directly into space from Elpis. I think Hythlodaeus cut him some slack because he was a friend and believed him to be an upstanding guy.

Yeah, and in this case what I'm trying to do is leave some room for "this is possible" to cut the writer some slack because if we go the route where dynamis knowledge was truly so absolutely abysmal and nobody else knew anything then the plot would crumble apart even harder. Because how then did Hermes acquire enough knowledge of dynamis as to create an entity capable of traversing the entire universe and also of twisting their powerful creation magics and even entire life forms into dynamis from the edge of the universe? Of undoing their entire species and their planet, and also the rest of the universe? Did he one day wake up and came up with all of that on his own?
