Because of this, it creates such a long list of events that you simply cannot have, and restricts the possible story sequences to a very small thing.

Every event when encountering your enemy in the story, you either walk up to them or they'll walk up to you. There's no way for Tseng to show up on a helicopter like when the plate falls, there's no way for the plate to fall period or for reactor 1 blow up.
Actually, in that case, the game would just freeze your character while Tseng appeared and performed his piece. This happens in the 8-bit games.
do you mean it would show a helicopter fly up with tseng standing on top of it, with Aeris standing next to him? I'd like to see a video of that.
