Pippin:
I don't know if it's possible, but if Vapormort had possessed the 
Riddle body, he might have combined the vigor and charm of his youthful 
self with the knowledge and cunning of age -- and he would have gained 
re-embodiment without whatever it was about using Harry's blood that 
inspired the Gleam.

Voldemort might also have considered his new re-combined soul a 
separate entity from the old one, enabling him to create more horcruxes 
and still keep within the magic boundary of seven.
