Well, Square are the ones with the engineers here with internal knowledge so they probably do know what they're doing

Going to stop you right there.
If it's Square's engineers working on this, then I'd say it is clear they do NOT know what they are doing. :P

They've been bungling everything lately.

Enix should get someone more competent like Nintendo, Level 5, or even Chunsoft, for the next game.

It's like you have to add at least two years to the development cycle of any internally developed SE game.  Like, if SE announces a new in-house game at E3 for the PS4/XB1, I'm expecting it to be transferred over to the PS5/XB2 three years later, released in 2024, announced for the 'Switch 2' in 2023 and then have it be ported over in 2026.
