This theory is also backed up by the fact that so far Ma has been an unreliable narrator in recent years. Since she said Elluka killed Irina and destroyed Leviata, even though it was vice versa.... I think you are mixing up Evils Kingdom with Evils Court. Even so, in that, it was perfectly vague and was based on fan interpretation with known information (which makes it entirely our fault for assuming that).

Upon deeper examination, a lot of what is put in Act 2 was already listed or hinted at in the Lunacy novel, including Irina losing and being put in the cat by a scientist.

I am not sure if this is Ma just being unreliable or partially our own translation/interpretation error. Meh, that's a separate discussion.

Just speculation, but perhaps Ma was intending us to think it was Elluka becoming possessed by the Demon and then accidentally handing off her possessed body to Kayo while taking the scissors but that Elluka had fallen (again) for the "multiple parts to one vessel" trick, this time pulled by Chartette?

I mean, while Elluka is shown to have a thing about looking nice, she's also already established to be immortal and despite Ma saying she needs to change bodies every few hundreds years, no other official source has brought up a time limit to her ageless bodies (just that she's ageless), and it was approx. 700 years before she swapped bodies with Kayo. Seems a bit more than a few imo.
