It can be iffy because you have pantheist you are pragmatist and will assert that it is just a conflation that people just so happened to give god powers akin to the cosmos. All pantheism is for the most part is animism taken to its inevitable extreme. It shows a strong characteristic trait though that pantheist now happen to be into all sorts of woo and semantical relabelling.
To be fair even the monotheistic religions of today do it as well. The oldest notions of gods we have are vengeful human sky-people who have NO bearing whatsoever in form to the Abrahamic religions who make their deity some sort of floating cosmic consciousness who comes off as an abusive drunkard father after experiencing trauma in the military. They give the universe precedence for their existence and also assign agency to the world just not a conflation like pantheists.
I lump them all into the same boat and chuck em back into the river. Let another theism float up that doesn't uses semantics as its argument.
