TVTropes and Neogaf are just saying their own interpretation from Kojima's tweet when all that tweet tells us that Kojima wants it to be MGSV with the V instead of 5.

In the link to the interview above at 2:50 Kojima states the reason from Arabic numerals to Roman numerals and basically says the same thing he said in the tweet. Throughout the whole interview the interpreter says Metal Gear Solid 5 when Kojima says it and says V when Kojima says it.

As for the ridiculous interpretation of a spinoff because it is MGS5 with the Roman numeral instead of Arabic numeral, that theory is shot down because of MGSV Ground Zeroes and it also confirms that MPO and Revengeance are not part of the main series.

If you have played Déjà Vu and Jamais Vu missions there are Metal Gear titles with games that are canon and are part of the main series and there are those that are not part of the main series.

Titles that are canon which Kaz will give intel on and the light can remove are the following games: Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2:Solid Snake, Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3, Metal Gear Solid 4, Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker AND Metal Gear Solid V Ground Zeroes.

So that pretty much confirms that MGSV is not a spinoff and is part of the main series.

As for the titles that Kaz will not give intel and the light will not remove are games that are not part of the main series which includes Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops and Metal Gear Rising Revengeance.

I rest my case.
