Alternatively, If the four Oracles are only infallible concerning their own Pillar, who are they, or what are they.
Or is this a suprise ... ????

In the beginning the Oracles will be fallible, and will provide ambiguous and incomplete answers, but they will learn. As the Oracles assimilate more and more minds into their collective, and they rely on better tools provided by the fearless leader, their knowledge and wisdom will increase, and their answers will reflect that knowledge and wisdom. They will become infallible.
Once the four Oracles are infallible the fearless leader along with all citizens of the Land of TOE must find a way to unify the Oracles so there is only one. This one unified Oracle will contain the fundamental knowledge underlying all Pillars of the TOE.
Once this grand unification has occurred, one can approach the unified Oracle and ask of it, "What is the TOE?". And the Oracle will respond.
