они там просто потому что выглядят круто

признание самих авторов

The first kind of goes to aforementioned worry about the hyper-literalism of a certain part of the fandom and the way that intersects with interviews and behind the scenes materials. I mean, all it took was the words of one production person trying to play coy about the religious aspects of the original story (likely in an effort to avoid controversy) and I can’t tell you HOW MANY PEOPLE at-ed me saying that the endlessly-clear religious symbolism the story uses to convey meaning was a red herring or something. In all my years of criticism I’ve never seen anything like it? Like they just literally discounted the fundamental metaphors of the show because one random dude said one random thing (and for good reason, too). But this actually brings us to the larger subject of understanding that a creator’s intent is not the be all end all of what something “means.” Because meaning is created in the interpretation process (whereas very little meaning is created in intention). Whatever the authors say is just as much of an opinion as anyone else’s.
