They do this in a lot of quests, actually! Even in the main scenario quests for 2.4. Originally, they did it for us legacy players. Some characters, like Minfilia, remembered us from before the calamity and our role in the 1.0 scenario (If you completed it.). The entire 2.0 main scenario is based around the idea of your character having returned after being skipped forward in time five years by Louisoix. A lot of the cutscenes have extended or alternate scenes because of it, even. I actually recorded a few of them awhile back. Spoilers, naturally.
