The bigger problem is that the soul the Illithid has is not your soul. Your soul is destroyed to create the Illithid in the first place, used as fuel to birth a new being.
Our character's having their soul partially survive might be possible due to the trigger for ceramorphosis being tampered with. Netherese magic causes various unexpected things to happen, so this can easily explain why we as an Illithid have a Soul the gods can sense, and recognize compared to a bog-standard Illithid.
There's even lore that the Aboleths with "perfect genetic memory" don't recall the arrival of the Illithids but, rather, the Illithids suddenly being present and having always been present even though they weren't always there. The paradox in their memory unnerves them.
Whatever they have, it's a different kind of soul. Withers being what he is, would see it the same as the realms' deities would, not a "soul" as the realms know it.
Yeah, the running theory is that Illithids are species from the future who have screwed with time to make their existence a part of the past. They may be the future species of a current species already in the realms that evolved into the Mind Flayers at some point.
Which is clearly not the case here.
In DnD proper the personality is not completely destroyed in every instance. The Mindflayer has been known to retain memories and some personality quirks.
Our situation is massively different compared to DNd proper.
1) We have Orpheus protecting our mind during the transformation process. If the dude can outright mess with Illithid minds, he can probably shield us no problem during the process of becoming one.
2) Our tadpoles are not natural. They are infused with the Karsite Weave. They have powers rivalling a mature Mind Flayer as a Joe blow tadpole. Regular Illithid common sense does not apply here.

The illithids are from the Far Realms, basically D & D's "Cthulhu Mythos/Lovecraft Zone," outside of all the normal cosmological rules. The beings of the Far Realms, like Hadar (his arms and his hunger are Warlock spells), are basically Great Old Ones, you know, like the Great Old One Patron of Warlocks who seems to otherwise go nameless. There's also Acamar, I think another GOO briefly referenced in the game.

I believe the Far Realms god of the Mindflayers/Illithids is a Great Old One called Ilsensine (sp?)
https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Ilsensine
Ilsensine seems to be the Uber-Over-Elder-Brain of the Elder brains.
Basically, Mindflayers normally have what Withers calls "non apostolic" souls, which means they don't go to the Outer Planes of the Toril gods, they return to Ilsensine. As said above, the original soul of the original being has already departed for the Outer Planes, their original body and form being consumed to become a Mindflayer.
That the player-flayer may have a different nature/existence, as suggested, may be due to the unusual way they became one (under Orpheus' control). And/or the influence of the Karsite energies on their tadpole.
Other beings from the Far Realms are Aberrations like Aboleths (as said above), Beholders (and Spectators), and Carrion Crawlers.
Yeah, I did accept the explanation but it was a bit of mindblast at the start.
