Exactly, things now make more sense than ever with this reveal, even if it didn't raise any eyebrows initially.

For instance, now we know that this is the real reason Held didn't want Irina and Elluka to meet, it's why Elluka's specialty is transmigration (i.e. putting souls into human bodies,) it's why Held isn't very concerned about the Demons of Sin (because he was basically just giving Elluka busywork,) lots of little things like that.
