Future FF7 Remake parts could be smaller than FF7R Part 1 to ensure a faster release schedule

Realistically, how would that work? With the likes of the Gotterdammerung, and the possibility of having fully leveled HP plus and MP plus materias from the very beginning, giving you 9999 HP right away, I don't see them giving the player the ability to start Part 2 in such an OP fashion.

They might come up with a way to have you transfer stuff over, but I don't think you'll start at level 50 with every materia and weapons maxed out, if you had all that in Part 1.

Yeah, I'm currently going through hard mode and leveling my weapons and materia and it's getting pretty clear that they won't be able to have everything carry over because you can get very OP. On the other hand, it would really suck (and make no sense) to start from scratch when Part II comes around.

One solution would be a hard mode available from the start to people who want to carry over their Part I files (maybe breaking the damage and HP caps) and a regular mode that allows you to start relatively from scratch (maybe with levels and materia equivalent to what you'd have in the original at that point).

Well they can also justify why your power is lower (like no one carry anything over, but let's say you start at level 30 as well would be an alternative) or you lost your equipment, etc.

Yakuza have a lot of sequels but they could justify you forgetting your specials and losing your OP.
