Well, for one thing, it doesn't matter if the soul or the body is pierced, as seen with Silver Chariot becoming Requiem in the flashback, because technically a stand is a manifestation of the soul, and secondly, I like to think that when Coco Jumbo's soul passed on, Mr President had to find another soul to bind itself to, lest it disappears along side it's former user. Of course, with Polnareff being the one inhabiting the body at the time, it would easily be able to bind itself to Polnareff, making him its new user, and allowing Mr President to linger, further cementing Polnareff's claim that the stand is stronger than it lets on. So, while I do see your point, those arguements can easily be blown out of the water, and it was nice discussing how Mr President still functions without Coco's soul.
