Actually it's fairly bluntly stated during the story of "A Relic Reborn" that your Thyrus, or Stardust Rod, or Bravura or Curtana or any relic weapon is simply a copy of the original design. The Zodiac Weapons questline has already made it clear that a "relic" is simply a type of weapon, a methodology for recreating or mass-producing ancient Super Prototypes and that the old man wants to see if they can be improved via soul infusions.
In fact, during the BLM Job questline and again in the BLM Relic quest, it's stated and shown that Ququruka is the mage who actually has the Stardust Rod (the original one that Shattoto wielded). Yours is just a knock-off!
So yeah, actually, it's fairly plausible for a zillion relic-wielding adventurers to be running around all over Eorzea.
