I think the hero-worship of Mothy is a little absurd. Every author who has a series spanning several years ret-cons SOMETHING.

Allen killing Micheala- not.

Wrath. In general, it seems Mothy changed his mind (Wrath, the forest to Wrath, the key/dagger/gun).

Kept Waiting- discontinued.

Everything related to Eve (now I'm a doll! And a prostitute! And a thief!)

Ma/Elluka connection being severed

The original Clockwork Lullaby being forgotten or ret-conned

Irene and her many-changing form, powers, connection to Elluka, name, ETC

Mothy wrote the orignal songs not expecting them to get this popular. SoE launched his career, and nearly everything made before it (or around it) has elements of re-writing. Early songs are abandoned, SoE-era is expanded with novels and such, etc.

Last Revolver was a deliberate red herring, since Mothy has stated Muzzle of Nemesis was supposed to be a combo of ALL of Nemesis's songs. That, and his cryptic "it's not Wrath's song" statement.

I think Irregular used to be Allen, until Mothy decided to use him better. Re-Birthday pre-dates the light DoE novels and Capprico Farse pre-dates this stuff saying it CAN'T be Allen. The original song has a lot of Allen references ('this must be your message,' words of water (regret message) and evil (servant of evil), waiting for Waitor (re-born Pride, much like Gear is re-born Greed (both sharing the affections of their sinner's), not to mention Capprico!Irregular is wearing Allen's clothes, appearing as his reflection on the Evil Theature album.)

What is he now? Who knows. My theory is that Irregular represents Allen's sins or something- Irregular is being punished for his past sins, and Allen appearently never was (and since he took Rillian's punishment, he should have had a Sinner's end). But who knows. Mothy is hardly going to explain himself.
