It did feel very meta in a way.
Now, thinking about it, if the ghosts are really gone by the end, that implies the next games might deviate heavily of the original plot and thus any estimates of how many parts there should be left after Midgar are meaningless, since the story isn't going to be the same. They might very well decide to make it to, I don't know, Wutai next, instead of chasing the "man in the black cape" who is far less of a mystery this time around.
Maybe the "Remake" included in FFVII Remake was a subtitle all along, with all its implications.
(That being said, if the way they want to change the plot is all about whitewashing Avalanche and having all characters survive, that feels more like a fanfiction.net version of FFVII instead of good, powerful storytelling, IMO).

Spoiler!
They've already saved 3 characters who died in the original. And they seem to be heavily implying Aeris will live as well. Of course, this could be a fake out just so they could break people's hearts again, which would be kind of hilarious.

To be fair, it would be interesting to see things go downhill precisely because that happened, in a Final Destination-esque way. So that's why I'm refraining from being more critical, since who knows what will happen and how these plot points will look like in hindsight.
