A source for Hitler's remark on 17 April 1943 to Horthy is attached below. See the highlighted part (the footnote) Since you're most likely a monolingual Burger LARPing as a Nazi, you can use Yandex image translate. Not only did Hitler say that the Jews "had to perish" if they could not work, but the German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop also told Horthy in the same meeting that "the Jews must be exterminated or brought to concentration camps. There was no other possibility."
Don't you notice the assymetry in evidence? I have a statement from Hitler saying 'if the JEws could not work they had to perish,' and an avalance of similar statements from Nazi leaders referring to the extermination of the Jews.
Conversely, you have zero objective evidence for your "hoax" allegation so you have to infer it from errors made by investigators and prosecutors in a trial, which happen all the time. (Incidentally, the errors you mentioned were not part of the final judgment at Nuremberg; nobody was "hanged" at Nuremberg for human soap, etc.).
There is no rational reason other than bias to infer "hoax" from such errors, particularly given that the Allies corrected them as they went. (e.g. at the First Belsen Trial, which the British conducted alone, at least one British government lawyer spoke of alleged gas chambers at Belsen; but the prosecution ultimately concluded that this charge was false and there were no gas chambers there. An odd concession for 'hoaxsters' bent on smearing the Germans to make!)

On 16 April Horthy told Hitler that Hungary had taken every possible measure against the Jews and that it could not kill them, to which Hitler replied that this was not necessary anyway, since they could be detained in concentration camps, as had been done in Slovakia. Because Horthy did not want to exterminate them, he should not hesitate to intern them. As Horthy was reluctant to adopt this measure, Ribbentrop admonished him on 17 April that he had only two options regarding the Jews: either exterminate them or put them in concentration camps.
In this context Hitler stressed (on 17 April) the need to bring the Jews under control. For this purpose, as stated by him the previous day, it was not necessary to exterminate them, but instead to put them in concentration camps.
A further example brought up by Hitler during the meeting on 17 April was the case of Poland, where the Jews who refused to work were shot, while those unable to work had to “verkommen,” that is, to degenerate, go to ruin, decline. This did not mean that they were to be exterminated, as is shown by the second last sentence, which contains the same verb in a similar context: “Nations who did not resist the Jews degenerated.” Hitler then gave as an example of this fate that of the Persians, who from former greatness, he claimed, in modern day survived as the pitiable Armenians."
Taken from MGK in their demolition of the holocaust controversies bloggers aka Nick Terry, Roberto Muhlenkamp, Sergei Romanov Han Meyer et al. I believe and posted on codoh.
I'd normally post straight from the scholarship itself but the argument is too weak to even need any of that so this will easily satisfy everyone.
As for hoax errors, etc etc. It's true that the allies sometimes didn't accept the various allegations offered but the allies themselves had both intelligence and propaganda elements as well as post war fact finding elements that did not always marry up, understandably in a total war scenario where millions of men are drafted into various different positions. Moreover the allies various agencies were not the original source of the allegations. That was Jewish / polish resistance elements in the theatre. There is considerable evidence of this in highly detailed work that you ignore again and again.
