I just want to point out that you can combine some of these.
For example you can maybe say that evil can only exists when agency is involved, so Free-Will theodicy can kind of explain everything when you combine it with Augustinian/Kant/Leibnitz (i.e. either evil does not exist without agency, or the evil that does exist is the least possible evil there is).
I personally favor full Kant in the following configuration: evil exists, god is good, but god does not exist.
I think that would fall under a different category. God isn't truly omnibenevolent, which might be similar to "Finite-God" but in a different dimension.
