I doubt the intelligence they transferred is only about the 12, given the size and immediacy of the reaction

Based on what? The moment the 9 had been fired, countries started pulling funding in a panic, seemingly convinced that the "intelligence" from the Israeli government was genuine, which is never a wise first assumption.

Those are the ones they were able to most easily prove using Hamas' own footage of October 7th.

Nothing has been proven. All of it is only based on information by the Israeli government that might well be fabricated. Since that's something they do all the time and right after a PR hit like the ICJ preliminary judgement would be the perfect time to make shit like this up.

Bottom line is that it isn't in Israel's best interests to stop all aid - they want to avoid a true humanitarian crisis

Absolutely not true. It already IS a true humanitarian crisis, which serves their mission of killing as many Palestinians as possible perfectly.

(as opposed to the current threat of one)

It's a THREAT in the same way as there is a RISK of climate change due to human actions 🙄

the war goals: return the hostages and destroy Hamas

Oh you sweet summer child..

The proof on the ground is that they aren't distributing that aid effectively at all and people are suffering as a result.

What proof? More Israeli government propaganda that you have chosen to believe without questioning?
