Moon Knight - SPOILERS

I feel like there was something more about that elevator scene with the other lady and the 5th floor. Can’t quite but my finger on it. Need to rewatch it.
Until the interaction with the goldfish and the pet store, I was thinking that the apartment (and even the sleepwalk-prevention procedures) were representing when the Steven personality was dormant. Marc replacing Gus tells me that the apartment is a real space.

Anyone here ever try to get a modern high definition movie camera rig into a legitimately small apartment? They're inappropriately large because that detail is less a problem than shooting in small spaces.
Yeah, I understand why.
 

I wouldn't include the "prevent them from sinning" part. Traditionally, Ammit doesn't want to keep you from sinning - Ammit gets to eat the hearts of those who have sinned. You sinning is good (and tasty) for Ammit.
But [Ethan Hawke] portrays her freedom as preventing sin in his motive rant, and claims that the judgment on the old woman could be for something that she would do if she lived.

We could speculate why she's been waiting for people to die naturally before, and now isn't. Maybe with the creation of the multiverse, the walls between Here and There are weaker, and she no longer has to wait for death? Or there's now more competition, so she's desperate to eat?
For ancient Egyptians life was about living in harmony with divine law (Maat) and sin was about Ingratitude as that led to imbalance. So it could simply be that the world is out of balance and Ammit and her champion have taken it on themselves to punish the ungrateful - and thus restore universal Maat.
maybe The old woman was punished because she wanted more, whereas the ‘good man’ was satisfied and just happy to be there
 

So Layla has been trying to get hold of Marc for months. Do we think she stopped being able to reach him when whatever it was that caused the dissociative identity disorder happened? And that, therefore, Steven has potentially only existed for a few months? Unless he was previously just a deep cover fake that Marc had already developed who has now taken on a life of his own?

With the tour guide / date thing, it’s obvious Marc is the one who asked her out, right? I’m guessing he would have imitated Steven’s accent so as not to confuse her by having Steven suddenly sound American.

Is Marc the same identity as Moon Night? Or is it Steven, Marc, and Moon Knight?
what we do know is Marc is the hypercompetent mercenary who Khonsu chose and who knows how to use the Moonknight powers, why Steven keeps asserting his presence though thats currently the mystery.

one of the things the character writers play with is whether Marc had DID before he first encountered Khonsu or if the DID is a result of Khonsu.
We do know Marc and Steven are among the earliest personalities to manifest, but in comics even the Marc persona has been speculated on.

My film making friends tend to have a variety of wide angle lenses for a reason.

Going waaay back Marc was the original personality and the fracture the result of Khonshu 'blessing' him with the powers of Moon Knight.

I couldn't make head nor tails of that post -- but my question was are there 2 personalities (S, M/MK) or 3 (S, M, MK)? (I understand there may be more later).
