FRIEND is actually, like, visible and in the game, so he's got more substantial evidence than any previous theory. He keeps showing up in in-universe media related to Cat Petterz and other video games, sometimes as a jumpscare or fake crash.

If he's on-screen he's important later. I don't write the rules.

I have zero interest in the Ethereals. I'm not a TBC kid. I don't give a shit about them or their dumb TBC elite quest mob. I'd rather Blizzard do something new and have a final patch on Azeroth for once. The last one was in MoP. Instead they blow their load early and make us all go to space. How am I supposed to care for this trilogy if they're going to asspull locations and final bosses whenever they run out of ideas?
I'd rather go back to just chasing Iridikron down instead of having to continue this Jobber'tath slop and Ethereal bullshit with a cast of characters I have zero reason to care for or want to help
