Divine Champion archetype - question re: Additional Resource clarification

Per the 4/4/18 Additional Resources:

"For the divine champion archetype, when selecting a connection for the lesser divine power ability, you must select a connection that has your deity listed in the “Associated Deities” header."

The only deities listed in the 'Associated Deities' header are the 20 Core Deities - does this mean that followers of the other, less common deities & the assorted philosophies (which are currently SFS options) are barred from using this archetype?

Lest I forget, thanks for getting the AR posted in a timely manner.

That's correct. The problem with allowing it with other deities at the moment is the level of interpretation required and how players might justify odd choices... for now we'll stick with this.

I thought according to the Guide and AR only the core deities are allowed right now?

Thanks for the clarification Thursty - perhaps this can be revisited at some point if (when?) clarification for the non-addressed deities becomes available.

Thursty comments in this thread that the other gods & Philosophies are valid options for PCs.
