I think part of the whole soulbonding core back in the day was the whole "we aren't multiple!" argument even when some of us very clearly had plural
experience elements (I know I thought that for a very long time... Though our core system IS still basically predominantly soulbonds and other soul relationships. Though being involved in metaphysical groups with channelers, oracles and godphones is what made us consider "maybe multiple fits better" oddly enough when we finally found the multiplicity group on LJ)

So glad that attitude is/has been changing albeit maybe a little slowly for some. Some people still hold that divide but eh it's getting some traction that soulbonders can be a plural subtype.
