As I said on the other post, about why I think Kyouko was also dissoluted:

"It is said that the contact experiment, Yui's one, ended on dissolution.

Inference:The act or process of deriving logical conclusions from premises
known or assumed to be true.

Yui had contact experiment: True
Yui dissolved: True
400% synch rate dissolves: True

Result: Yui had a 400% synch rate during contact experiment and dissolved.

A contact experiment ended on dissolution: True
Could another one end the same way? For what we know, for the only case we
know, it ended on dissolution. Odds are that another one also could end up
like that. Probability.

Still, the other time when we see 400% synch we also see dissolution and
core animation: Shinji in Eva-01.

So I sum: One 400% synch ended on dissolution and core animation, t'was
called contact experiment. Another 400% synch ended on dissolution and core
animation. For what I know till now I could logically say that core
animation requires 400% synch and dissolution."

Why? We see Kaworus special abilities projecting his ATF at long distances,
blocking all sensors. If Rei had the same abilities, then just getting out
of the Eva would be no problem to continue containing the Angel. But she
says if she ejects the ATF would go down. What ATF positively would go down
if she ejects? Her own? It doesn't seem too logic IMO. But the one that
would positively go down is the one from the Eva, no synch, no ATF.

Just one thing: Did Rei ever manifest special conscient abilities using ATF
before episode 24?

I'm just saying that if Kaworu's DP only worked with Kaworu compatible
souls, if all MP Evas use Kaworu's DP, all MP Evas, as they manifest ATF's,
should have a Kaworu compatible soul. The only Kaworu compatible soul we
know of is Kaworu himself. But the DP issue is a tricky one, I wouldn't put
my hands on fire for it.

Then you agree that the MP Evas had ATF's of their own, right? Because if an
anti ATF is an ATF expanded to infinity (or something of that sort), and
this Anti ATF appeared before giant Rei, then those MP Evas would be having
ATF's.

I know nothing of biology, nor do I care, nor do I think its relevant when
talking to Eva. I was just trying to express in a more understandable way
what I could see through experience: that the factor all pilots had to be
compatible with their respective souls came from the body. Flesh from the
flesh. I don't know how this works, I don't think I can draw anything
positive from Eva about how this fleshly determination works. But one thing
I can positively say: that factor exists, because 3 pilots synched with 2
souls, and the only thing those 5 elements had in common was 'the flesh'.

I read a thread a while ago that used that dialogue from episode 21', Yui
with Fuyu in front of a lake, and it explained more or less that Yui knew
exactly what would happen to her. This is more or less confirmed by the RCB,
when it says that her accident was probably intentional, and she was behind
it. I don't remember much of it, but it was interesting though.
