No there isn't, at least if you use something akin to Will's solution.

Then we got read for her death in the 1st Twilight of EP3. Mind you, Shkanon meets this same problem in EP2 and EP3.
Only kind of. And the one place it might be most useful is the one place where it isn't really needed and makes much more sense without it.

The important factor that you need is the idea that additional personalities/roles can also count as people (in terms of Red Text, this is) - without this Shkanontrice is pretty mush useless.
No, it's perfectly fine. You don't need personality death to solve ep1-4. Ever. Unless, of course, you're presupposing Shkanon, at which point you need personality death to get around reds of that nature which would otherwise potentially preclude it. But that's stupid and implies one should think the author is stupid. Why would you write yourself into a problem you need a bullshit rule-bending trick to get out of when you could just not have Kanon there?

But that's another matter entirely.
