I first saw that specific take on why souls incarnate to Earth in an essay by Ari Love. I believe there is much truth in that. She uses the word simulation. I object to that and to the illusion concept even if they are correct. It's too dismissive of the feelings of people living life. Ari says but simulation is accurate. That reeks of the lack of empathy inherent in the term I learned recently, narcissism of small differences. I recount the conversation between Ari and myself, which Blaine Coleman joined, with links, in this essay and poem about different perspectives which sprouted from conversations between me and my new dear friend, Simon Heathcote. https://medium.com/channspirations/of-lenses-15623c1616c5
