Just another two cents. As a person who has a knack for writing descriptive lore myself and has even studied the lore of many sources (Anime, All the star wars and to a lesser extent, some FF games) I noticed no lore is ever 100% non ambiguous. A lot of gray areas are left open to promote imagination of the stories setting.Â
So the lore addicts are in themselves really are setting themselves up for failure if they're trying to stick 100% to lore as that's the thing, there's always a gray area somewhere.
That coupled with the fact even a group as large as SE has shown even together making lore that they cant always keep it consistent and air tight. Take Advent Children or Crisis Core compared to the original FF7.
In crisis core at the end Cloud was fully healthy on top of the train with no signs of mako poisoning. Yet at the beginning of FF7 he was a vegetable in a wheel chair found by Tifa.
In FF7 all the remnants were dead. In Advent Children suddenly 3 more equipped with cell phones guns and bikes appear. Does that suddenly mean lore wise remnants weren't all dead?
Writing air tight lore is damn near impossible for a group let alone one person. So if people want to slightly bend the lore why are others getting on their case?
Im not choosing sides but from what I read from the last few posts people seem to argue about following lore just because they want to argue.
