Do you think the God would claim omni-benevolence? I didn't get that impression. In fact, I'm not sure that the entity would even claim benevolence. As you implicitly noted, that begs the question why to name it God.
The character in the story makes it clear that It (presumably not really a He) isn't omnibenevolent-- my point was more that calling it God is a dubious use of the word.
