That may be the case; however, I reject the notion that every detail which appears in a magic scene always means the same thing. That is, that Beatrice is always "Beatrice" (or whomever Beatrice represents, which has never been proven to be "Beatrice"), that the stakes always mean one thing, that the Siestas always mean one thing (in fact the Sietsas provably cannot), that Gaap's nonexistence before ep4 means nobody did whatever she represents before that, etc.

I don't think it's as easy as a 1:1 cipher, especially given that Kumasawa/Virgilia and Genji/Ronove are so blatantly presented to the reader. I don't think he'd go so far as to say "It's all a puzzle, and if you switch in the right names, you get the answer!"
