I feel as though I must be in the minority when it comes to understanding what exactly was going on with their regulators. Were they some how making new souls? Did they just stop allowing souls to go back to the Aetherial Sea? Do regulators come with a soul already inside of it? And what does this mean for the vague notion that some souls have personalities? If souls do have personalities what happens if a person receives a soul that doesn't match their personality? And I guess the souls that the star grants to animals are completely different?

Does he get revived soon after or does his memories instantly get sent to living memory due to not having done anything yet to earn himself an extra soul and his own soul gets to now be processed? There feels like there would be a limited amount of souls as you would need more people to opt into this way of life so that people could bank more souls. The whole system just feels too confusing. It is an interesting concept, but not one that was really thought out.
