Indications have been scattered in the whole series, I may very well have failed to pick them up earlier. Will reread "Backup" soon, if I want to flesh up the short stories pages, wonder when I'll be able to go through the novels.

You're probably right about Angels&Fairies being two distinct, and possibly similar, aspects of the universe - angels also have powerful limits built within them. Particularly if you go a step further and surmise that the White God and the universe are one and the same. This might indicate that the universe is actually a living entity and that the Outsiders are infective agents trying to penetrate it for their own purpose. Outsider reproduction comes to my mind, but, like so many analogies, this might not entirely hold up.
