> The hypothesis is "God exists". If that is incompatible with Abrahamic theology, then I've been way off track for a long time.
I would say that is possible. I know I was off track for a long time in the past wrt/ this subject. Because as a Westerner, I first learned a lot about Middle Eastern philosophy from Westerners. but there are a lot of misconceptions abound.
If you are truly interested in understanding Abraham's philosophy, I highly recommend this book. It's both educating and entertaining. Also, it provides a fairly unbiased view, by interviewing experts from all 3 of the main branches of Abrahamic theology.

> If you mean by "independent" that God is not created by his creation, that is surely true, but it has no relevance to the problem of evil.
"Good" and "evil" are man-made ideas, they are arbitrary qualities you can ascribe to something. They don't have independent existence of their own.
It is perhaps no coincidence that the forbidden tree in the "garden" of eden was named the "Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil".
