This is all metaphysical speculation, and being this sort of speculation, it is not subject to reason or logic. Which makes it fun for parlor games and a source of creative inpiration but pretty damn useless for solving our everyday problems.

Metaphysical speculation absolutely is subject to reason and logic since metaphysics is a branch of philosophy. Reincarnation doesn’t make philosophical sense since a “reincarnated” person is still a new person. It becomes a “mechanical” process of a “soul” traveling from body to body with no one benefiting from the process since each new person cannot identify themselves with previous incarnations in any meaningful ways.
