It says that Alessa fused with God. A clear indication that they were separate beings, as I read it.
And, can anyone really argue that Alessa's goals are in any way similar to God's? This talk of Incubator being Alessa, if true, can only be so in a strictly physical sense. Certainly, the things Incubator does are by no means Alessa acting consciously and independently.
Whether Alessa transformed into God or was destroyed in the birthing process is totally irrelevant. The fact that God is in total control past the point of birthing is the relevant point. Even if it's Alessa's body being used, she's merely being worn like a suit. The actual persona is no longer in existence.

Incubator is one of the three forms of God on a list dedicated to describing the various forms of God because . . . it isn't a form of God?

And then, no less than six times in Lost Memories, in no less than three different chapters, the Incubator is referred to as Alessa. That's not including the Play Novel calling Incubator "Alessa," the actual novels of SH1 & 3 calling Incubator "Alessa," and Silent Hill 3 referring to Incubator as Alessa.

If that's what makes you happy, I guess.
Believe whatever you want to believe. Konami could say outright that Alessa is the Incubator, and you'd still willingly ignore it, the same way you're willingly ignoring the 11-some examples I've just offered you, preferring to stick to the one (1) quote that semi-justifies the narrative you want to present.

I don't really think Incubator is Alessa. Could perhaps be that Incubator took over Alessa's physical body, or that Alessa was destroyed and Incubator is an entirely separate form. Silent Hill 3 certainly proves that God, at least in its larval stage, is obviously a life separate from Heather. The old debate was "did Alessa transform into God" or "did Alessa birth a wholly separate creature", and I thought we arrived at the conclusion that it wasn't clear and didn't matter.
The only point about God that I care anything about is the one relevant to this discussion: Who gave birth to Heather? And, I am adamant in my belief that it was not a matter of Alessa Gillespie cloning herself as a consolation prize for Harry.
