On the contrary, the basis for Germaine's possession is "technically" different from Irina's past possessions. In the past, she used the Body Steal technique to have the cat she possessed (as visually seen in The Lunacy of Duke Venomania manga) to indirectly possess a human and use them as a vessel, kind of like using them as a medium so she can directly interact with humans and do what they do (such as handle tools or objects that she can't properly utilize as just a stuffed cat).

With Germaine, the understanding is that an entirely separate technique was used on her, and our translators (mainly Maddji), describe that this technique is made distinct from her Body Steal technique in the fanbook. Unlike her cat form using a human body as a medium (and able to freely enter, leave, and control the body at her whim), her spirit directly possesses Germaine and inhabits her body in a similar way to Elluka's Body Swap technique (minus the trade and plus the "called it; it's mine.").

For that reason, as well as the extended period of time she uses this body and the fact it is the only Vocaloid representation to have actually appeared in any of the songs, we have added MEIKO as one of her Vocaloids. Based on your hapless argument, you are asking us to also remove Luka as Elluka and Kayo's Vocaloid as well. After all, the reason they looked like Luka was because they used Lukana's body. So technically, it wasn't confirmed. :)
