Thoughts on Beta Arceus?

I personally think despite it being a lil goofy, I like to think since Legends Arceus revealed the Arceus we catch is a fragment, Beta Arceus is the all powerful weird looking being Arceus fully is.
still looks like a horse though

    is beta arceus representing it can’t really take a true form and is more squiggly

    Ever since I forst saw beta Arceus, I had a theory. The Pokémon Arceus isn't actually Arceus' true form. It is simply a form mortals can interact with, as its true form is too powerful and godly for them to see without any consequences. The true form is beta Arceus, although it looks a little different than the image we see.

    And then PLA proved part of that (the final Arceus, the one you can catch, is not actually Arceus' true form).
