Diamond ore doesn't generate/spawn naturally in the Nether, pointing to the diamond armor/swords being MOVED there. In the chests, there are DIAMOND swords and armor.

Swords and armor? Nothing new, considering that adult piglins can be found wearing gold armor, and I'm pretty sure that all piglins have a gold sword. The things you find in chests are really suspicious, too.That speaks to these being leveled out by pickaxes and/or shovels, which brings me to my last point. they have their own size-and-shape, and do not fill with blocks solidly down to the solid terrain beneath, but float above, entirely even.' Minecraft almost never, if actually never, have any generated structures (aside from the Underwater Monument and maybe the Desert Temple if I go back and look) that 'float above' any land surfaces or are 'entirely even'. The description on the gamepedia doesn't stop there.Why would the piglins or hoglins need housing units? The bastion remnants generate '4 types of structures: bridges, hoglin stables, *housing units* and treasure rooms.' (credit to the page link above).In the bastion remnants, there is a treasure room, where, at the very bottom of the room being surrounded by piglins and hoglins, are solid blocks of gold, like in the Underwater Monument part of the theory.

theory for another time?) Anyways, I (again) don't much evidence to point towards this, other than a few facts I just found too weird to ignore: fanatic of the ancients? This is the Nether, the equivalent of heck, after all.

I consider the bastion remnants to be a place where some experiments on preserving life were being conducted (maybe by the more. the Desert Temples and the Underwater Monuments) were most likely places where the ancients either practiced religion or didn't want destroyed. This, combined with the advancement name, the more recent parts of the civilization theory with MatPat theorizing that most (if not all) generated structures in the world were abandoned as soon as the ancient people escaped to The End to not die to the threat that almost ended them, and the fact that some of those structures (i.e. On this page, the bastions remnants are described to be 'large, castle-like generated structures found in the Nether'. Admittedly, I don't have any official Minecraft books like the Mobestiary to double-check my facts, so I'm only going based off of this link. The part I wanted to add was about bastion remnants. Now, I don't disagree with this theory at all, in fact, I outright wanted to add to that theory. This kind of reminded me of when I was going through all of Game Theory Minecraft videos, MatPat almost always mentions his overarching theory of there having been an ancient civilization that, in their hubris, were trying to find a way to preserve life but were chased to an inescapable prison by one of their experiments that finally proved their undoing. As soon as I walked over the threshold for the thing, I was given the advancement 'Those Were The Days'. So, while playing through Minecraft after five years or so away from the game, I stumbled across a bastion remnant in the Nether. This is my first theory ever and first time posting on any subreddit, so please give me criticism on where I can improve! (And I was up for around ~40(?) hours at the time of posting this, so I didn't really have the brain capacity to check to see if anyone else had the same idea before me in the subreddit or to go back and check my post before I passed out so, please, take all of this with a grain of salt).
