To add onto this, this is what's currently aceped for Dragon Ball;
- Soul Manipulation (Ki is synonymous<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBSM61-126"><span>[</span>120<span>]</span></a> with spirit, life-energy and the soul.<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBSM61-126"><span>[</span>120<span>]</span></a> Ki being spiritual<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBS52-6"><span>[</span>6<span>]</span></a> is a fact reiterated a multitude of times; consequently, the energy<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-127"><span>[</span>121<span>]</span></a> is invisible<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-128"><span>[</span>122<span>]</span></a> and formless<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-129"><span>[</span>123<span>]</span></a> prior to being converted.<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-D4-1"><span>[</span>1<span>]</span></a> The manipulation of energy is done by using the internal spiritual energy from within<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-D4-1"><span>[</span>1<span>]</span></a> and being able to materialize it, and project it outwards.<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBS55-11"><span>[</span>10<span>]</span></a> Therefore, manipulating this means interacting with your own soul to draw upon ki for various uses)
- Ectoplasm Manipulation (Ki is the same as Spirit Energy,<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBS52-6"><span>[</span>6<span>]</span></a><a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBSM61-126"><span>[</span>120<span>]</span></a> and is synonymous with the spirit, soul, and life force<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBSM61-126"><span>[</span>120<span>]</span></a> of individuals, and even beings in the afterlife<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBM516-130"><span>[</span>124<span>]</span></a> retain their Ki. The intrinsics of this is further shown with reincarnation, as souls keep their spiritual power,<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBS66-131"><span>[</span>125<span>]</span></a> and pass it down to their new bodies. This energy can be projected<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBS55-11"><span>[</span>10<span>]</span></a> through many ways and is explained as a mysterious spiritual internal energy from within<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-D4-1"><span>[</span>1<span>]</span></a> a user that can be materialized for their attacks. That makes it equivalent to manipulating the energy of souls, but the energy can materialize as ki-based attacks)

When fighting against other Ki users, their Soul Damaging effects are inherently resisted with the most powerful Ki users being able to endure the effects of Hakai<a href="https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Ki_Manipulation_(Dragon_Ball)#cite_note-DBSM84-143"><span>[</span>136<span>]</span></a> which directly targets the soul and attempts to destroy it completely)
Tirek absorbs ponies Equestrian Magic (life energy/essence) multiple times yet no ponies died. Just weakened
The Princess give Twilight all of their magic, losing their cutie marks and magic. Yet are just weakened and still alive and again even when turned to stone, having their magic stolen by the Storm King, are still alive after being freed
Survived Starlight removing their cutie marks (Their destiny, as Shown in the Season 3 final. And also thus removing their magic)
The Rainbooms were fine having Sci-Twi drain their magic (albeit also weakened temporarily by it, and eventually gained back their magic so Sunset could become Daydream Shimmer via the Magic of Friendship)
- Life Manipulation (Magic is repeatedly referred to as life force and essence, effectively meaning that when they cast spells, they do so using their own life force)

It makes sense to me as well, and considering it some kind of soul rather than literal life is more supported by what we see when it's removed as you pointed out. The term 'essence' especially gives that connotation.
Oh, and it's also kind of implied to be related to the cutie marks, which represents 'who they really are' or whatever, so more soul iconography there.

Basically this plus a "Equestrian Magic" Page with NPI and Limited Resistance to: Soul Manipulation
like Dragon Ball Ki has
Fixing up the MLP profiles from the main series 9 seasons plus 2018 movie, then we'll tackle the IDW Comics as the main show takes more priority to add to the profile anything missing like Twilight, Fluttershy and other characters socal Influencing

Also shouldn't Equestrian Magic grant self soul Manipulation like Ki in Dragon Ball, plus Ponies can survive their magic getting drained from them multiple times Equestrian Magic is life energy, essence and that's already accepted
