I can’t precisely articulate my 1 big polyatheistic disbelief (and feel no particular need to do so, since I think theism/atheism debates are futile+pointless) but suffice it to say: polyatheism is as much stronger a position than atheism as atheism is stronger than agnosticism.

Yes but I like to make it explicit since most atheistic positions are monoatheistic in practice and there’s interesting additional commitments in polytheistic positions that need countering. Monotheism is a simpler structure to refute basically.

all modern western atheists because they don't actually grok what polytheism is about so they don't grok the delta that needs additional refutation/skepticism

Most Indians don't get it either, if it's any consolation. Monotheistic flavors of Brahminism have largely overlaid base true polytheism.

You misunderstood... the "original" polytheism had largely vanished by ~1200 AD so it's an archaeological effort to reconstruct it now.
