With Warframe having an overall theme of identity, sense of self, and personhood, I think Wally is a perfect representation of a lack of identity.
After all, he has no form of his own. He can only mimic people and concepts created by people. Even his wall form is mimicking Albrecht and the Vitruvian Man. One of his titles is "That Which Bears No Name".
When you free Rell, he even says "I WON'T LET YOU TAKE ME FROM ME".
He has no identity to call his own.

The Man In The Wall tears at the scars in one's heart and salts the wounds anew, a la Tanetane Island in Mother 3 and frankly a lot of other media. We see him doing this with Loid in WITW, telling him he's as abandoned by Albrecht as the Lab they lived in.
His next target is The Lotus.
You know. The Lotus. Who is struggling underneath the memories of three lives within her.
The Lotus, who bears the consequences of denying the purpose given to her by her father. Betraying all of Sentient-kind because she refused to kill the Tenno. Sympathizing with Human children when she herself is a Sentient made to destroy them. Being mourned and then despised by her family for defecting, when she was only doing what she, and the rest of Sentient-kind, wanted: To have a family. Children of their own.
The Lotus, who bears the consequences of looking up to Margulis, a woman who died protecting the orphans of Ten Zero. Naming herself after this woman's favourite flower to honor her memory. Picking up the mantle of caretaker and friend to these now twice orphaned children. Allowing these children to fight in the war against the Orokin, allowing them revenge for what they did to Margulis. Allowing these children to be the child soldiers that Margulis died to prevent.
The Lotus, who bears the consequences of dedicating her life to protecting the Tenno. Defending them from the harshness of reality, softening the impact of the trauma inflicted upon them. Lying to these children into numbing their true Void power. Hiding their true selves from them when she herself has been lied to and manipulated before.
The Lotus, who now bears the trauma of dying thrice: Natah to the Orokin reprogramming, Margulis to the Jade Light, and lastly, to the Void.
You know. The Lotus. Who definitely has a wide network of people to trust outside of her Tenno. Who definitely hasn't been left alone to process every event that shook her. Who definitely is known for talking about her fears and doubts and wants and needs.
The Man In The Wall is targeting THAT Lotus.
I don't think he has to kill her to kill her.

"Listen! It's not you. It's… wearing your skin, but it's not you."
Felt like drawing Wally as an unnamed Operator

The Man in the Wall sounded desperate to get their hands on that last page because it contained the one thing that could stop it. The one bit of Albrecht Entrati that he had not already fully consumed.
At the same time, it was Loid's bitterness, his unwillingness to hear out the man who hurt him, which was fuelling TMITW's plan to materialize in the universe. The vast indifference, as it were.
And understanding this, the Tenno utilized the decrepit, run down giant (which TMITW casually disregards as "abandoned") to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. To give Loid a reason to reject indifference. To utilize the last gift Albrecht Entrati left for Loid.
The Man in the Wall was stopped not by any plans or machines. It was stopped by oLd MaN YaOI.

Warframe really went "what if you not only got the attention of a Great Old One but also got it to be pissed off at you specifically?"

i think it'll be terrifying as a mechanic to have Wally possess whoever is giving you a transmission and proceed to climb out of that little box on the side of your screen

ARE WE GOING TO GET A CUTSCENE FROM WHEN ALBRECHT FIRST WENT THROUGH THE DOOR INTO THE VOID?!?! ARE WE GOING TO SEE HIS KAVAT AND A YOUNG EULERIA SITTING OUTSIDE THE DOOR WAITING FOR HIM TO RETURN?!?!
