I like the idea of there being a hidden layer beyond the official truth, just like the cheese riddle in Ep6 had a higher-level, superior solution. And I even think that Ryukishi created a thematic precedent for that kind of fake out, what with Natsuhi being successfully framed by Lambda and Bern in Ep5. R07 showed how a cleverly constructed half-truth can be acknowledged even by the court of heaven - and how it's still possible for the truth of the future to overwrite the truth of the past years later. So I'd be happy to accept a new, more convincing truth in principle.

My main problem with your theory is that, while it is in some ways a cleaner setup logistically (the same accomplices every game, a human = a body with at least one personality), I don't see how it's not worse than Yasutrice thematically. Battlers sin is still something utterly insignificant and Beatrices motive remains petty revenge. Am I supposed to feel differently about Beatrice as a character because Kanon is a cute tomboy? Doesn't she have even less of an excuse for her actions if she has her very own, perfectly functional body?
