No, that would simply make it confusing.
Which is not good. Making you wonder, yes, that's great, fantastic even, but just defying all sense is not.
Don't get me wrong, I really liked Halo 4's narrative, and I'm even making an analysis for the story as we speak. It's just there are some glaring plotholes and retcons that are genuine flaws within the story.
The plotholes really are not as bad as people are making them seem. Plus, many people who claim the story is messed up are filling in for variables they do not know. Like I said, it's important to realize that we know 1/3 of the storyline.
Unlike Reach, where we knew the story but Bungie chose to make their own (lame and anti-climactic) narrative to it. Yet people ran up and down swearing the book and the game could co-exist in the same universe.
Halo 4 has fewer plotholes and of less magnitude than Reach's narrative but more people complaining about it.
Lastly, a lot of the things that people claim to be "plotholes" aren't even that - they are often times opinions. No disrespect to you, Cobra, but your rant about how the Didact was evil for the sake of being evil didn't really work in any way whatsoever to further your argument that the story was flawed. It was your opinion and nothing more.
This I can agree with. Halo 4 was by no means the canonical travesty that Reach was.
