I maybe have a new interesting thought. If I havent overread a line were someone came up with it earlier.

We all know the BB somehow alliances with skull face because, like we assume that they join forces the hunt down Zero. Even if they have a lot to settlte. We know that the main tenor of the game will be very dark and very serious. The game is about "the fall of Big Boss".

So whta if, kojima makes us fall too. That he makes us feel what BB feels. What if BB will loose? And Zero wins? We know that he wants BB to come back to the Patriots. What if he succeeds forcing him to rejoin the Patriots and give him the control of FOXHOUND. BB pretends as defeted and works agains Zero from inside the Patriots like he lerned from Ocelot to build Outer Heaven. I can imagine the storytelling of the game beeing fighting for revenge, making alliances we dont aprove of, loosing comrades, body parts and simply going through hell. just to fail in the end. Like this is going to be "The Empire Strikes Back" in the MGS Univers. Fighting like there is no tomorrow just to lern that every friend and comrad you left behind and everything you fought and suffered for was for nothing. Yeah I guess that changes even the strongest man.

That would explain how BB ends up with FOXHOUND again without any retcon. And it would be a perfect explaination why BB becomes a man who acts totaly ruthless to achieve his goals, dont you think?
