Did Squaresoft ever say anything about the R=U theory?

I think it makes perfect sense.
Theres a lot of things in the game that is hinting towards the theory beeing true.

Besides, we're never given a reason to why it is that Ulti wanna compress time.
Just for the hell of it? Seems pretty weak.

one of the flaws in FFVIII.
R=U was true i think the story would have been worse. ellone=ultimecia makes a million times more sense to me but whatever.
