I don't think Iamblichus believed that the angels were actually Gods but that they are in a technical sense, not really different. The Gods are present in their angels who can lift you closer to the deity. At least that's my understanding

simply the desire/need to eat food and drink water is not inherently ignorant/evil when clearly the fuel is necessary for forms or bodies to create the dance/energy. at what point does one need to starve themself infinitely to achieve so-called goodly nous or celestial fixed star?

Biological drives/needs are not described negatively, only necessary. Irreverence & Ignorance are often described specifically in relation to Nous & the lack of knowledge of it.
