As for Griever, she probably only created him out of Squall's imagination, probably to scare him. And if R=U were true, why would Ultimecia be fighting Rinoa? Without going into Time Compression jargon, Rinoa was Ultimecia before turning evil right? Well, that would mean that if Rinoa was dead, Ultimecia wouldn't exist then. Like people say, there really is not enough proof for R=U other than theories and "symbolism" in the game. And symbolism can be determined in many ways.
Ultimecia has no memory of her former life whatsoever, and therefore has no idea who Squall and Rinoa are.
Where is any of this even hinted in game?
Put two and two together. I provided the evidence that Rinoa may be Ultimecia (didn't say for sure, which is what forces us to use our brains). Ultimecia tries to kill Squall and Rinoa and seems not to know who they are. GFs make people forget things. Ultimecia uses at least one GF that we know about: Griever.

Logic, people. Logic. Am I the only one with pointed ears here?
You do realize that she may not know who they are because she never met them, and may not be related in any way, shape or form? Memory loss does not give any slight hint that she knew them at any point, nor does it hint that she might be Rinoa.

That is like saying I am eating a taco, a cow died a while ago. I am eating that very cow.
