" If we're going to take his word for it about Zipangu, I don't see why we wouldn't take his word for it about the chaos gods."

He's seen Zipangu first-hand. Any information he has about the Chaos Gods is second-, third-, or fourth-hand, at best.

Also, KC has officially stated that Wandering Scholar actually doesn't always have it right. Wandering Scholar is forming opinions based off short-term observation of one or two individuals of a given species, which is why many of his profiles state that such-and-such does nothing but eat, sleep, and fuck.

Aside from that, he has also flat-out stated that much of what he has written in the books is complete hyperbole and is not intended to be taken 100% literally.
