Kefka uses a... Harp... wherever that came from which is not even a weapon option from VI but it is a major weapon type used in the series.

Hmmm...I would read much into this since it is just another example of the craftiness that has gone into presenting Ultimecia as Rinoa and Rinoa as Ultimecia. The probability of it being a coincidence is lower than the probability of it being done on purpose.

P.S. The main reason I am defending the R=U theory, asides from the fact that there is evidence to support it throughout the game and that it makes perfect sense, is because I have word from a friend who knows one of the programmer's on the Final Fantasy VIII project and he has stated that from what he has heard in passing from the creator and from those who have assisted in the creation process, Rinoa was and is meant to be Ultimecia. It is obviously not official so I can't prove it.
