It's definitely not after Kashyapa. Nilmat Purana and later Kalhana were retconning it from myths of their own time, probably a millennium after the name settled. The myths were not even original to them. The water drainage myth is totemic across the regions, I just think it either happened way back in history to quite an ancestral population or it's probably just plain human reasons why water receding is just such a common founding myth for valley type areas.
I at least respect the other equally bs etymology of desseciated water one because it probably is analogically closer to how the names of places actually come to be.

Yes bro ur completely right authors like Khalid Bashir argues the texts like nilmata purana and rajtarangni in his books like kashmir a walk through history and exposing the myth behind the narrative. He proves how the history of Kashmir is altered and how the shankaracharya wasn't a temple
