Hmm... FFIX, while one I did enjoy, wasn't one I went as crazy on the lore of- so while it makes perfect sense I didn't think of the two as the same race... but yeah, that makes perfect sense >.>
That said I like this, the assumption is that only 'awakened' Genomes whom have already gained a soul are playable, since they take certain penalties but it mentions their awakening in place. I think this is for the best since playing a Soulless creature is... well, weird? To think about, feels like it wouldn't have the potential to be a PC or make much in the line of decisions to further their goals.
So yeah, overall I like this, the Ideal/Mystic Vessel racial traits are a tricky one cause that can be pretty powerful at times, but it also has a 'cap' so that at 20th level you gain no additional benefit from it.
