Maybe a soul can't be replaced once it's destroyed.  I got the
impression LV only represents one seventh of his own soul - not that
it is any less  powerful if he had them all.  My question is - will he
want any of them back?  Are they hidden to protect LV's power?  Or are
the horcruxes intended to replace someone else's soul (like he tried
with Ginny), and if so...why are they hidden?
