That there will be debate is almost a given, as for our debate I'd think we should do that beforehand, either continue as per VM or switch to PM.
We need to evaluate these core arguments to which we can agree.
Exactly, that's what I think is the crucial starting point and should be the first definition made before we go into more detail regarding different "types" of beings in the KH-mythos and how their "identity" (if they have one) came to be.
On a whim I can already count five different types of "being":
1. Regular humans (like Riku, Sora, Ventus, Terra, Mickey, Xehanort etc.)
2. Special beings spawned from someone else (like Namin?, Roxas, Vanitas, Xemnas, Ansem SoD)
3. Regular Nobodies (assuming they have their own identity and are not continuations of Lea, Braig etc.)
4. Replicas (Riku Replica and Xion)
5. Data Existences (Tron, CLU, Data-Sora, Data-Riku)
We should maybe even look into if "identity" even means the same in KH than it does in Real Life.
I think you mean the fact that one heart can feel what another feels with "emotions existing in two hearts at once", right? As each heart having the capability to experience the same range of emotions is natural and logical.
This however, as is the wielding of the same Keyblade at the same time, has more to do with the connection between the beings in question rather than with identity I would say.
I think Nomura even pointed that out, that Roxas could wield the KK at the same time as Sora due to his connection to him.
Untangling the Xehanort-mess is however another big task in itself, lol.
