If Deafening Spirit is discarded via Gates of Hell, does it go to my territory?

The Gates of Hell (TP)
Type: Fortress • Brigade: None • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: At any time, you may discard the bottom card of deck. If it is an orange demon or a Lost Soul, place it in your territory instead. You may discard this card to add your demon to the battle.

So identifiers are not active at all times? That would seem to contradict the current ruling.

Seeing as the new REG doesn't have an entry for identifiers (unless I missed it), there isn't any way to know that there is a difference between identifiers, in which case I posit that the ruling about all identifiers being active at all times should apply to, well, all identifiers, unless I'm remembering that ruling incorrectly.

You could add it to battle by discarding Gates (if it fits "orange demon" for the instead, it would also fit "demon" for the add to battle ability), or you could put it in your hand with Abe's Kid. Several options.
