I know this from reading the appendices and other sources

As written, yes...however, in terms of intent, I'd argue that the intent was that the Istari counter Sauron....hence, is there a particular intention as to why Olorin had to turn up only in TA?

EDIT: and reading the above deep lore quotes, does suggest it could have occurred, even if he wasn't at that time "Gandalf" per se.
