His razer would have been much sharper. Because , as I often say here
"'understanding reincarnation, everything makes sense" Explanations
are simple . Not doing so, there are no explanations, just mysteries.

Theists make the same claim.

I believe in reincarnation, just not in the way you New Agers do.
I believe we return to life as adults, that we simply appear on the scenes
after we die, and wait for people to recognize us.

Occam's Razor

The principle states that the explanation of any phenomenon should
make as few assumptions as possible, eliminating those that make no
difference in the observable predictions of the explanatory hypothesis
or theory: entities must not be multiplied beyond necessity.
