Almost feels like the writer's realising in real time that it was a mistake to not be more clear about this.
Which I say as someone totally ready for a film that is a shameless "cover" or "redux" of alien/aliens without caring too much about how much it makes sense or moves the franchise "forward".
Doesn't mean that we don't want some clarity around what the film is actually trying to do, especially in the era of reboots and pre-/sequels.
