I was under the impression that {Hoch} could mean "everything" only when used on its own, as for instance in {Hoch vor Dargh wIb}.

My misconception was, that in Hoch-noun constructions, {Hoch} could *only* mean, "each noun", or "all nouns" depending on the presence of {-pu'}/{-mey'} or not.

I dunno, maybe these are true. I don't think we've ever seen Hoch X mean anything other than each X, but there's also no rule against it meaning the more general X of everything. Lacking anything concrete, I concede that they are possible, if not definite. It's also the reason I suggest not overloading the use of Hoch when we don't know everything about it. Stick to what is known.
