Also, I understand the use of such adverbs, in those circumstances, to be hyperbolic rhetoric, more so, than precise declarations of proportion, etc.

For example "everybody loves John", is most likely a form of rhetoric, designed to indicate that John was generally liked, rather than a declaration that everybody, all people, literally love John.

Hyperbole has inflationary effects on adjectives and language in general. For example, if you walked into a room and started to give a speech about John and started with, "people generally liked John", in 1850 that might have worked just fine. But, in 2023, because of the language conflagration that is the Internet, it's more likely that you would start such a Speech with "literally everyone loved John".
