"So long he finds good reasons to explain why things did not happen as the way MENTIONED by other characters (such as, a character was misled by false info), I am ready to accept it without saying he is re-writing the in-game history"

That is a good point actually; after all they explained away mistaking Doctor Clarke in for a man in MGS1 with Campbell's sexist assumption (or else that her identity was too well protected) that she was a man and not that he actually new, even if it was presented that way. But Kojima-San was able to explain it away when he wanted to make the female Para-Medic Doctor Clarke in MGS3/PO/4
