Sorry for the long answer 😅. Yes, I am aware of that. Pillar is the maximum possible power with stability, after that it's just ruin. This is what happened with the ancient LOM and the AMS, they battled each other and tried to accommodate more Sefirot, causing the insane will to converge to act and awakening the Original Creator within them. That's why they fell and made plans to revive. At least the former LOM, aka Celestial Worth, did. But these outer deities don't seem to care much about it. It may be that the convergence and greed factor speaks louder. Or they don't want the Sefirot, just the pathways, as the uniqueness and characteristics would not cause the same situation as trying to accommodate 2 sefirot or more. In my opinion, if one of them manages to house more than 1 Sefirot, they will be much stronger than the rest and the tendency is to try to take and accommodate the rest as well and if this happens we have 2 results: 1) The Original Creator revives and starts the cycle again . When separated they tend to attract and come together and when together at a higher level they tend to separate because they are antitheses and contradictions, this is what happened with the Original Creator. 2) The same result as above happens, only without the Original Creator or his will being reborn within that being. In this case, the being would go through the process of consummating and accommodating everything in an insane eagerness guided by the law of attraction and then would not be able to maintain the state of being everything at the same time and "bang" we have the cycle restarting.

Salvation and Redemption are not the same thing tho

Yeah the Fool can resuscitate people, like... it's not that hard guys. And Klein as a ATS with the powers even stronger, he just need to wake up and win over CW.

Probably one of the identities of Adam. Like Pauli Derlau had many and Audrey created one for herself to be with her family while she's been doing Tarot Club things.

What happens is that the outer deities want the characteristics, uniqueness and sefirot to ascend to the position of pillar or something higher, basically they want to become stronger, in addition to the law of attraction of the beyonder characteristics. To be a pillar, the number of authorities has a certain connection with the level and status, but not entirety. The corresponding characteristics, power, and symbols are equally important. Then by logical thinking the deities tried to obtain authorities corresponding or similar to their own. Like Monarch of Decay, something related to illness or death would be ideal. In the case of COI, both the Lord Of Mysteries and the Key of Light surpass their authorities. Taking into account that LOM is a pillar, it is logically the choice that will give Coi more power.

Or Termiboros was a clone, like Amon and Klein are able to have multiple bodies because of the worms.

This already happened, when he was deposed from the throne of Trier. She turned on him a long time ago.

Or the death pathway

Adam isn't even half a pillar yet. He only has control over 2 Pathways and he manages to mobilize part of the power of the Sefirot with the help of the slab. There's still a long way to go.
