An article like that wasn't unexpected in the least...obviously in order to make an idea like this work, all sorts of subjective nothings would have to become big foreshadowed "I told you so" hints that everybody "should have" gotten.

In that sense, I'm not crazy for the writer's attitude because he doesn't seem to get that -- in order to execute this idea in the first place, the writers had no choice but to take advantage of everything they could (and they had plenty since so much of the canon is undeveloped) to steer the story in this new direction while giving the appearance of it always being "planned from the beginning".
