A few things came to mind while I was pondering.

In the True Pacifist endgame, Hyperdeath Asriel claims he's going to kill Frisk again, and again, each time resetting the world. And each time.. his friends are going to remember less and less of him.

That if someone could repeatedly reset time and repeatedly kill someone.. other people wouldn't be able to remember them.

This goes to a really dark place, if that's what Sans had to do to force people to forget Gaster.. but San's trip back in time did lead to Gaster's death somehow.

Then there's the FNAF interpretation, where a person's soul is literally made of memories, of remnant. And if you split the memories you've essentially split the person.

The Memoryhead Amalgamate seems to be made out of bad memories, from several people. As if memory was a physical substance. If Gaster found a way to extract something as etheral as Determination from souls, could he extract other things, like their memories as well?

Then there's also the prospect that memories can be restored. Frisk does that to all the Lost Souls in the Hyperdeath Asriel fight.

Now that I think about it, the digital haze the Lost Souls had reminds me a bit of Memoryhead.
