Yikes no. Final Fantasy 8 is the second-worst Final Fantasy. (1st being FF2, of course)
We got Triple Triad and that is enough.

Which is why "the best/worst x" is subjective. I personally love both VIII and II. A resurgence of Triple Triad by SE themselves was a dream come true and I would love to see more shout outs to VIII in the future.

One day, The Doctor will appear in my garden, and I will travel with him !
(I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!)
Too true. Usually I hear that VIII was the worst Final Fantasy, not second worst. On my way up through the US game releases on NES, SNES, and Playstation, VIII was the only one that I just quit in the middle and only finished a year later as a completionist OCD exercise. It was the battle system - junctioning was a terrible idea, or maybe it was a good idea but implemented very badly. The only other time I gave up on a Final Fantasy that quick was XIV 1.0.
Then again, I also had a hard time with VI once the World of Ruin opened up, which seems to be the holy land for other FF players, and found IV to be the best game in the numbered series because you never had to choose your team - you just got to play through a fairly straightforward story (only minor sidequests) with interesting characters and a fun battle system.
No, FF3 is the worst due to the way the job system was done there, with FF9 being behind it due to so many horrid things that I don't have time to delve into them all. /opinion
Now that we have that out of the way, let's discuss a better reason for why it shouldn't be in here, shall we? Such as it not meshing well in the game, or them wanting to keep everything original or something else like that.
They've already confirmed that they won't be doing retro dungeons any more.
If they did, my vote would be for Pandaemonium from FF2.

Ummm no. Heavensward was meant to be "Original".
