I don’t think I can prove what I think about Zote but I still think there is enough evidence to keep it viable. I don’t think anything Zote says is evidence on its own, as he seems a bit delusional, and if PK automatically ditches failed vessels into the abyss what is Broken Vessel doing in the Ancient Basin? Also, the Knight can’t climb out of the abyss without upgrades like Mantis Claw and Monarch Wings so saying Zote can’t jump high enough doesn’t really work, as neither can the Knight, but it still managed. Also, while I agree with your evidence about Hornet being hit, again, Broken Vessel is confirmed void creation and makes the same noise. About his ability to talk, my theory involves Zote being created to be a knight and kill the Radiance, so I still think it fits that he can talk, since that would mean he’s one of the first attempts at a vessel, possibly created before the king realised he was gonna have to mass produce the things.

I’m not really saying your theory is wrong or even that my theory is right, just that I still think there’s enough evidence supporting the idea that Zote is a vessel to not outright dismiss the idea, and at the moment I think it’s impossible to get a difinitive answer, which is what I thought about Hornet until you mentioned White Lady’s “dalliance” line (though I still don’t get, in that case, why she’s the “gendered child”).
