Yea, this theory is a bit of a stretch, now that I think about it. But yes, let's wait for the finale before we start throwing around such terms, okay? Rampant speculation before at least semi-hyped things like this tends to not be helpful and can even be detrimental to one's enjoyment of it if it turns out that speculation was all for naught.That's the kind of thing that happened with Equestria Games — too many people expected the Games to be shown center-stage, and when they saw it was just another (admittedly really good) Spike episode, people cried foul and started whining about how "it wasn't what we expected" and that "they missed out on a great opportunity by not showing the Games".In those cases, people should have learned not to judge an episode by what it could have been and instead by what it actually was. And the only reason people were talking about what could have been in the first place was because of all that wild speculation. In the end, patience and open-mindedness will beat out rampant speculation any day of the week, and unless you've analyzed every part of every episode to where you find out some major twist the writers were planning all along, odds are the writers aren't going to write an episode to the whim of your hastily slapped-together headcanon only based on minor details and thirty second snippets.
