One could argue the whole Grandfather thing but let's face it, he's only considered to be related to Chico because of that ridiculous joke theory of Chico being Quiet. You forgot to mention that the Commandante was implied to have died fairly recently at the time of Peace Walker, which makes him being The End even less likely than his chances already estimate since... well, as you pointed out, The End died in 1964 in a pretty explicit fashion (basically, blowing up, maybe dying in his sleep at best). I didn't point it out for the fact that The End was over a 100 by 1964 where as Chico was born in 1962, I can't see The End being fertile anymore in 1961/1962 and that alone is simply the down right conclusive part of why The End cannot be the Commandante.
