I thought of those things too, but the details are a bit off to be fit together in any real tangible way.
A captive usually has handcuffs around both hands. Additionally the cuffs are different. Freed from captors also would only make sense in a religious sense. I've seen a speculation that he is like adam. Freed from God by the banishment from eden and the freedom of choice. So there's that.
Secondly, he knows that baby. And that's the pain of loss on his face. He also has no bellybutton, which could be an implication that he's not born of a mother. Again there's also the symbolism of God taking the rib from adam to create eve.
The baby also didn't just disappear, it turned into oil which is a process of decomposition.
It also doesn't explain the strands/cords everywhere, or the locks and math equations relating to physics.
Personally I think Kojima went around the offices and was inspired by other games that Sony is making. The QD one and gow.
I just think the simplified metaphorical view is too superficial for kojima. Kojima likes his double meanings and hidden messages.
Also, just to reference to the space suit thing. Yeah he said it has no meaning to the game, but I'm pretty sure it does. You have floating beings, sci-fi cuffs, and the equation for the radius of a black hole on his dogtag. |
No, I said Kojima said it didnt have anything to do with game and I didnt believe him. I was asking where does that fit into this theory.

I think that it's simply the company that the main character probably works for. It's also curious to note that the name given to the spacesuit was an EVA. This is a name popularized in Evangelion, which was a huge metaphor for angels and the story of Adam and Eve, and science destroying God, I believe there was also some Deus Ex Machina stuff in there too.
