Its not that badly convulated, most of the real bullcrap in KH2 was there purely for dramatic purposes and doesn't heavily affect the main story whatsoever with the exception of Xehanort/Ansem/Xemnas stuff... I think we can still move on, especially since Chain of Memories is still the most superior entry in the series...

The other thing that's different from KH1 and 2 is the method of which KH is found. In KH1, its a place in the heart of darkness where destroyed worlds go to, whereas in KH2, Order XIII artificially creates the doorway (or world). Not to mention that the Birth By Sleep trailer suggests its possible to summon Kingdom Hearts with the keyblade...
It could take on the particular personas of the original person in question. It could be that KH's form is dependent on the person currently carrying favor. A Heartless (pure Darkness) would cause KH to take on a form in which it is a void. A Nobody, who flirts with both Darkness and Light, could cause KH to be a twilight. An Unbirth could cause it to be whatever philosophical quandry they decide to give it this time.

Approved.

But, there's no evidence to suggest that any worlds were destroyed in the timeframe of KHII. KHI is far more malicious in its treatment of the universe than KHII is. Since there was no one who was around to deal with the destruction of the worlds in the first game, many worlds suffered with definite consequences. In the second, Sora was already well accomplished in the task of saving worlds. The time from the end of CoM to the beginning of II was only a year; in the first game, it seemed to be much longer a process, and the new timeline gives it anywhere from ten to sixteen years. It's not inconceivable that several of the worlds visited could easily have been destroyed had Sora not arrived in the first place.

We can also consider the character attempting to access KH. Ansem D was brutally evil, and wanted to obtain more power. Xemnas just wanted something of his back. In a sense, it's the method of obtaining power and what the intentions of using it were for. Ansem D was selfish through and through. Xemnas was willing to do evil in order to accomplish what he thought would end the suffering of those who were like him (ultimately what can be considered a "good" act).

This sure as hell ain't Dante's Inferno. I can't write a book on Kingdom Hearts. What I can write a book about is anything Tolkien. Remember that this is Disney: it's superficially deep. In fact, it's rather simple to understand. People are made of three different parts, and when something goes haywire with one of them, happens. This isn't higher order differential equations. I don't have to compute any Wronskian matrices.
