That would defeat the purpose of Soulstones in the first place, which are designed to convey the collective skills/knowledge of the past holders to the new holder.

I suppose this is a point of speculation in the community and is more  of a 'however you feel' situation?
It depends a lot on the job lore. For a lot of jobs we don't really know but for some like Black Mage, we know that some of their most powerful spells will burn them from the inside if they even try to cast them. For the Machinist for example, the stone is also the aetherial catalyst acting as a bridge between the body reserves and the aetherotransformer. For the Dark Knight, the soulstone is also the gate to their dark persona (left very vague and a lot of personal interpretation on that one).
