Why is lemon juice added to lemon pie filling after the starch has thickened the water?
Lemon juice is added to lemon pie filling after the starch has thickened the mixture to preserve its bright, fresh flavor and acidity. If lemon juice is added too early, the heat can diminish its tartness and alter its taste. Additionally, adding it at the end allows for better control over the balance of flavors, ensuring the filling maintains the desired tanginess. This technique also helps to prevent any potential curdling of the filling.

Why do you put eggs in a lemon meringue filling?
The egg yolks provide the only fat in the filling, which is necessary for texture. Also, the egg yolks help thicken and bind the filling in recipes not calling for cornstarch or another starch. Without them, the filling would taste like a lemon gel, not a smooth custard, which is what the filling is and a custard, by definition, requires eggs or egg yolks.
