The one thing I wonder about is how they just came to terms with their existence right off the bat with no confusion whatsoever and very little disorientation. For example, while I've never really stated so, Gina's last memories are those of Asuka just as the Production Series Evas start tearing her apart (hence her state of mind when she awakened). She was pretty damn confused and didn't know what to make of things, but she eventually adapted.
Also how the heck did they know about the upcoming projects already?
I'm not trying to shut you down here, just curious for an explanation. Handwavium can only go so far, after all. Of course, you could go the route I went with the Magnificent Midnight and say that it was the spirit of the plane that became manifested as an AI since she remembers her time before being waved. But the thing about that is that by that time Midnight was already pushing fifty years, if not more.
