Is the Unveiling Lore book messages narrated by the Witness or the Winnower aka the Darkness sent from the Unknown Artifact back in Shadowkeep?

I have always said from day one that the Winnower = the Darkness, not the Witness. It's not that the Darkness is more dangerous than the Witness, it's that the Winnower lets the Witness use it as a tool, to fulfill the Winnower's own goals. I've always felt like this is glaringly obvious, but other people seem to disagree lol

Do you have legitimate proof that the Winnower is an entity more dangerous than the Witness, or is it just another name for the Darkness itself?
