I only know of two examples of {HochHom}, both modifying nouns.

We know we can use the {Hoch} and {HochHom} on their own (without placing them next to/after nouns), to mean "all" and "almost all" the people/beings.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understand it, we can use {Hoch} and {HochHom} on their own, meaning "all" and "almost all" the things.

So, and if my last assumption is correct, are there any canon examples of the latter use of {Hoch} and {HochHom} ?
