It's fake or someone probably paid Kitase to lie.
Squall was actually hit in the upper right area of his chest, not shoulders.
Squall=Dead being a true possibility in the remake just because he likes the idea? Nonsense.
R=U is false? I'm surprised he doesn't like this idea because this theme is not very uncommon in Japanese culture.
X sharing the same universe as 7's? Blasphemy and utterly stupid.
Fake, which it probably is, or not it very well be the Creator's canon. But I (or you) don't have to reinterpret everything just based on what he said anyway. It'd be pointless and unsatisfying.

No, but before a battle begins, D-Ultimecia saying "Shall we dance?" is a nod to the R=U theory. In retrospect, VIII Rinoa says the same line at the dance party. Also consider that D-Ultimecia is clearly sane in Dissidia, compared to her original Self both in Japanese and English.
I say, screw all these external sources as in being not true canons or retcons, and stick with your true interpretations from the original sources.
