Just a reminder that "AGGELOS" means "messenger". While this is commonly
used for cherubim and seraphim et al, it is valid for others, including men

You are absolutely correct in your statement. In the 7 letters of Caps. 2, 3
I think reference is made to human messengers -- the bishops or presbyters of
the various churches. Here, however, I think it's fairly clear that a
non-human messenger is indicated.
