Me not Anyway, that's a matter of opinion; but I think for the purposes of this we cannot take it as proof for Khamul's absence, as we can't say for sure what Gothmog was. Btw I thought if you have something to say on this subject, there were several threads concerning Gothmog back then, I remember for example this one (and I believe there's a link to another one in it).

Hm, but where do you take support for the presupposition that the nazgul were leading any of these battles? For example concerning myself, this is the first time I encountered such an idea, before it did not even cross my mind. And I mean evidence, not just your own theory.

Well, not sure... thinking about their aversion to water, maybe the hard rocks would've been preferable...
