Is the popular theory about the Grubberflies being a stage of evolution towards becoming Moths / Moth Tribe Members a valid thing to put on this page?

To recap:

Collecter was made by the Pale King with a clear purpose to capture something, as seen in the pale king's laboratory in the white palace. This was probably grubs.

Grubberfly's Elegy shows a winged grub, or evolutionarily probably a moth. In nature, Grubs are a stage of growth before becoming moths. If they were to grow into a "butterfly-like thing" as the article suggests, then wouldn't they be catterpillars? And besides, we already have a caterpillar in the game: Bardoon. So it's not like they're actually caterpillars and just called grubs for convenience.

It's essentially the only given reason for the pale king to have been so deadset on capturing the grubs. He didn't want more moths to worship the radiance and bring her back.

I know ya'll (the wiki moderation team) are busy, but this seems like genuinely quite well supported speculation and is an idea shared by many in the community that isn't mentioned on any other grub/collector related pages. Maybe worth a little bit of mention in the trivia section? Thanks :)
