I recommend reading this linkCDavis7M wrote: ↑Mon Dec 21, 2020 4:04 pm Read the rules again. An attack from a creature cannot occur without a condition being keyed and met ("such an attack can only occur if"). The rule on attacks doesn't care whether the creature is played or not. Keying is required for an attack to be declared.

It is the post that you referenced but apparently ignored.
Abstract summary:
A requires B, C requires A, and C necessitates D does not imply that A necessitates D.
A: whether a creature attack can occur (creature is playable)
B: any one from a list of criterion
C: actually playing the creature
D: one particular criterion (the attack is keyed)
I thought you might be conflating A and C, or perhaps B and D, or both.
My best guess based on the language above is that you think C includes declaring any kind of attack, not just attacks that occur from playing a creature. Evidence against this includes, e.g., Ahunt creature attacks being declared but not being keyed to anything.
Not sure how else to help.

A creature attack does not necessarily is an attack of creature.
But some evidences (or traces? or false statements?) exist.

We will not speak of such things even in the morning of the Shire.
I can see how one might believe A necessitates D when one conveniently drops the C conditional AND disregards the hypothetical nature of "can".
