His actions were a problem because he willingly upset the "balance" and killed another villager in the process of changing, thus he got stomped.

Why anyone would choose to become a youkai instead of the objectively superior Hermit -> Celestial Job Change route is completely beyond me. Even if you don't have to worry about getting Fortune Tellered, you're still making yourself dependent on belief to survive, and since you aren't getting away with doing anything like outright genocide in Gensokyo, you're not going to be feared in the same way the big named Youkai are. At best, you can become a Magician, but then your physical abilities are probably going to be dogshit if you aren't specializing in body-reinforcement magic.

I'm of two thoughts.
The first, presuming Grimsokyo, would be yes. I don't wanna die seeing my innards being devoured by someone and the only counter to that is being a youkai yourself.
The second, presuming OP is a sane person and not a grimfag, then fuck no! I don't wanna be a long-lived race, are you nuts?! Even if I couldn't get a 'huwife, everyone in the human village is a drunkard and set back hundreds of years, I could easily find a wife just from the first and probably worst head in the entire village's lifespan.

No, here's what I would do.
I'm a hu'whyt 6'5" /fit/izen, so I already heightmog and musclemog the entirety of Japan including Gensokyo's human village. What I would do is bring with me a professional arm wrestling table with me (I do pro arm wrestling, y-yes it's a thing) into the centre of the human village and put up a sign:
"1,000,000 YEN PRIZE IF YOU DEFEAT THE STRONGEST IN GENSOKYO"
"humans only" < in small print

Eventually gathering a crowd, I would begin demolishing everyone who would dare challenge me.
But here's the kicker, after every defeat I would flex my biceps to the crowd a say "See? Strongest in Gensokyo." Then I would pump my chest out, the crowd would love it and cheer.
Finally there would be no more challengers, I will have conquered the human village with my superior lmao5pl8 deadlift strength.
It's now my time to shine.

I would ask Reimu to take me to Hecatia so I could challenge her to a fight.
I would sing "I know a song that will get on your nerves~" until Reimu agreed to take me there.
Finally 1vs1, me vs Hecatia.
The match begins and I utterly stomp Hecatia. It's not even a competition.
Reimu is stunned, "H-how did you do that?" She would ask.
Then it would flashback to the arm wrestling tournament and every instance of "Wow anon, you really are the strongest!"
Then it would flashback to Yukari giving an explanation of how the human village influences Gensokyo "Whatever the human believes... Is real. fr fr no cap"
Then back to everyone in the human village proclaiming me the strongest.
Then I would say, "Ohh, you know~ Starting Strength 5x5."
At that point I would turn to the camera and wink ;)

Reality:
Anon draws in a vindictive youkai for his hubris.
Youkai sits down at table disguised as a villager.
At that moment, real villager that can read notices the fine print.
"Hey, wait a minute. You're a phony! A big, fat phony! Hey everybody, he's a phony!"
All power of belief leaves you instantly, and your opponent folds your clothes with you still in them.
Your corpse is flung outside the gates and then mogged by fairies.
Villager 352: "This little fella says he saw a corpse outside the gate!"
Short shit witch: "Oh yeah, kid, that's just how it is!"

Second of all, I don't think Mokou wants you to be immortal.

All life in the universe has been extinguished for eons. In all that time, there's only been a few people to keep each other company:

The real issue is that they wouldn't be able to keep each other company by that point. They'd be stuck dying and having their souls rebuild their bodies, before that cycle repeats.

Nothing shows that they get an afterlife however. Seriously, what we know of youkai is that in practice they are free floating spirits without a 'real' physical vessel, which is why they are so physically strong. Essentially there is no way to 'kill' a youki physically, you have to destroy the soul. Obviously no soul = no afterlife, no youkai has a proper afterlife.
They will never ride the Shikigami's boat, never stand before a Yama, and never be sentenced to hell or judged to be pure.
