I don’t know why, but I see the writers making Excalibur like the Sword of Godric Gryffindor, as in, only someone worthy can pull it from the hat (stone), and once someone has used it for it’s purpose, it disappears and returns to the stone for the next worthy/divinely appointed person to use it.

Perhaps the sword of Godric Gryffindor was based on Excalibur?

More or less. The hero and his magic sword is an old (and I do mean OLD) trope. Harry and Arthur are both in that classic cosmic hero mold so it’s natural to draw a parallel between the two.
