1) Ishmael and Big Boss have the same VA (Kiefer "Jack Bauer" Sutherland), which implies in a sort of projection of the survival instinct of BB.

2) Ishmael is always ahead of BB, knows exactly what to do, and is never spotted. Prettttt-ty convenient.

3) Back on the "Phantom Pain" trailer before it was oficially announced as MGS V, there's a scene where soldiers start to fire at several people on a corridor. The first one to get shot is a guy with bandages on his face; what if he's BB's friend... But, about two seconds later, when the camera follows BB's head as he turns back, during a split second we can see Ishmael hiding on another corridor on the wall. How's that? Did he respawn?

4) Grey Jaeger had not yet been rescued by BB meanwhile. It'll probably be retconned, but the timeline simply does not fit (inb4"bigbossrgreyox11!1!"theories) Just so I am being clear here, Gray Fox/Frank Jeager is Null. He was in his early 20's in Portable Ops, which is about 15 years before Ground Zeroes, which would make him maybe mid thirties. We've also established Ish is not Gray Fox. Frank Jaeger, Null and Gray Fox are the same person. I like messing up with every name a character has been called by if they have too many, hence "Frank Null Fox" and "Gray Jaeger".

Personal joke. Sorry for that.
