None of what you have mentioned makes your point. In fact it breaks it wide open. Were in “Rad Nails” did a Derketa priestess gouge out a man’s eyes as he climaxed? Were in did they make a direct connection to being Derketo? The debate over the Derketo/Derketa situation is a heated one but as written in the canon material they are different Gods. Publishings after 1933 isn’t canon lore btw. That seems to be the biggest source of your confusion. Howard never approved of the handling over of his estate to (I believe) the publishing company. The current foundation controls the licensing but not what is or isn’t canon. Only the original books are Canon.
Lets not forget to address the elephant in the room. Funcom has stated on multiple Q&As and on live stream to that the lore of Conan Exiles is “Their take” on Howard’s world of Conan. Any argument about the validity of lore goes out the window in face of Funcom outright telling us it’s “their take” on it.
You can cry “Lie” all you want, it wont make you right. You can stick your head in the sand if you want but that is the truth of it.
