out of topic but i will try to answer all.
"But is it not Monolith Softs duty as a developer to surpass Xenogears, therefore 3D maps?" Is not there only duty is a natural thing for every studio and developer to make better game then the previous one,and many game has surpassed Xenogears and many games that surpassed by Xenogears had been surpassed by XCX (in my opinion) and XCX will be surpassed by many as well in the future.
"Is it wrong for Monolith Soft to look back at what is considered their "Greatest Game" to get inspiration for XCX" Who said it's wrong , i am saying every studio will , intentionally and unintentionally adopt some aspect, which is great and some minor problem will be fix, to make " new Greatest game in the future " because XCX is the greatest game for present not for the future, and it will be mark by histories but other will emerge in the future.
"Has Square lost the vision of Final Fantasy simply because they are SO worried about the past and being different than it to make a 3D game like FFVII?" My answer is yes they had been lost their vision and their games quality in past fiew years, but they fixing it that now, and change their strategy by changing ATB style for battle with real time.
"If not then why not make a FFVII remake and not come out and confirm we will NOT be getting a FF VII remake until a game surpasses it?" My answer and i think other people will answer the same that is clear that they still moving forward and keep changing, the reason they telling us that they will make FF VII until a game surpasses it" it's just a sweat talks to entertain the nostalgic fans. It will not be the same game like it was when FF VII came out if they make the remake. because a lot of games have surpassed FF VII in terms of quality etc. maybe not from FF series but from another studio and company like XCX maybe.

1: True, but it's all based on opinion. There are still people here who believe Xenogears is the best of the Xeno series.
2: I'm not saying you said it's wrong. I'm bringing up the point that if they specifically take something from a previous game to try to surpass it, it obviously equals quality.
That said XCX may not be the Greatest Game at present. It's a matter of personal opinion.
3: Fixing it?... I guess we'll see. You seem to be jumping to the conclusion that every new game is the "Greatest Game Ever"! In fact, Type-0 for the most part was only mediocrely recieved worldwide, XIV needed two releases, and we all know of the travesty of XIII. Notice the world as a whole almost stops even today with an anouncement for FF VII (even if it does just turn out to be the PC port), yet again another sign of quality.
4: You're opinion, and one that is greatly not shared. Heck, I even agree that games have come out that are better in terms of quality than FF VII (if we are talking about outside of SE), but that's not what the majority of people think.
