As far as Miller becoming "master," technically, he already got the name from leading that guerilla group in the radio dramas (and besides, it can easily be assumed he'll just go against Big Boss because of the latter becoming more extreme), and honestly, the days where Big Boss was evil are gone thanks to MGS4 basically making clear he was basically misunderstood (and don't think this was 100% a compliment. I know Ether101 basically said this, and he actually hated that outcome), so don't expect much. That'd by why I wrote possibly becoming Liquid.

Regarding Miller, that may be the case, but I'm referring to the FOXHOUND Master Miller, whose respect was commanded by Solid Snake. He may have been called Master beforehand, but this is what I'm talking about. Before the Trojan Horse Operation (or pre-fiddle as I've heard it called), Kaz was a charismatic leader, but hardly the Hell Master FOXHOUND came to know. Considering Kaz is my favourite character in the franchise, I look forward to seeing more ways he's changing in to that man.

Well I mean, you could contend that Big Boss' being evil could be "redundant" as early as MGS3 considering the entire philosophy of that game is that there is no such thing as a permanent enemy and whatnot. But, the fact of the matter is that Big Boss became a tyrant warlord, and it'll also be interesting to see whether the Trojan Horse Operation was what caused him to become a "demon", or if there's something else. Sure, you could say there's no point to the game, and that it's "filler" - I think you're wrong - but you can say that. But by that same token you can say that there was no need for Snake Eater and that is most peoples' favourite MGS title, so go figure.
