Novi, Yanhe can't XSY, not even with herself, the only way to do so is to modify Vocaloid itself to both allow "Yanwu" to be "Installed" and used as a "voicebank" and for XSY to occur with herself.

Glitches aren't intended and strickly speaking, Miku V3 and V4x can XSY with each other both in Japnaese and English and all voicebanks within the language can do so. What shouldn't happen is "Miku V4x 'Darrk'" and "Miku V4x 'Dark'" XSY-ing, as they occur only between Miku's voicebanks. Piapro is also not the vocaloid software so has its own independent software. Even then, the thing with glitches is that their not a result of modding the software to allow it, thus its fine. Its just not fine if you alter the softwares data to do so. Glitches often are fixed when its known and thus the glitched feature can be a temporary thing that can be patched with any update. This falls onto CFM to fix the problem, if they take time or don't then that's their own fault not yours.

Thus a Glitch and a Modification aren't equal things to each other.

And honestly, XSY-ing a vocal with itself are pretty pointless, as even with a different config their the same Vocaloid and have the same traits. You achieve very little and I think its almost pointless. ITs not creating the same effect as 'Voicebank X' and 'Voicebank Y' XSYing, wherein the traits of one voicebank leek into another to create a third entirely different and unqiue result, which the point of XSY. In short, you achieve a like 0.01% difference typically and its pretty pointless because of it. Its way even XSY-ing Zunko V3 and Zunko V4 is pretty pointless... >_<'

To be honest, I shouldn't have to explain it and none of it matters when it comes to Chinese Vocaloids. Don't get me wrong, it happens even in our part of the fandom, but that's our problem and nobody else's. While as I said, Chinese fans doing it are the Chinese fandoms problem. It pretty much sums up the situation, yes we know it goes on, but no we shouldn't care as all we do is just not include the songs on our wiki.

There really isn't much else to say and its pretty simple to understand; "XSY modding in any way is a no-no, but the habits of Chinese fandom is something we shouldn't get involved with". :-?
