Yeah, those are definitely the core character allusions. I don't think the point of alternate Beauty and the Beast theories is to dispute that. I think it does just come from the facts that, Blake, not Adam, was associated with the Beast in Red Like Roses and that the Beast - Adam as an allusion has become pretty superficial and backwards after volume 3, when he was shown to be pretty much irredeemable. People are thus looking for something else that makes sense.

Personally though, while the Yang - Beauty, Blake - Beast thing does make some sense to me, I don't think it's anything unusual for the character allusions to be pretty superficial overall.
