Anyone else notice this reference in the latest Dev Blog post

Okay so to start the Devs have added a new blog entry regarding the UI changes coming with 5.4. And while glancing at it I noticed a reference to another series that people have been requesting a collaboration with for some time. Here is the link to the Dev Blog. You'll notice that when they get to the Duty Roulette changes they word things very "specifically". Here is what it says. Here is the exact wording

"The Duty Roulette names will also be simplified~
Simple and clean is the way these changes are making me feel tonight, it's hard to let "Duty Roulette:" go..."

For those who may not know. Those are the lyrics to Simple and Clean the English main theme of Kingdom Hearts; almost verbatim. This little Easter egg, coupled with a recent tweet for SE regarding the FFXIV and KH universes "colliding" does make me wonder. The tweet alone was just a sales promotion for the holidays, and by itself is easily over looked. But, the wording in the English blog post can't be overlooked. I mean why word it that way?

What do you guys think? I've never expected a KH collab, cause I know there are hurdles with Disney. But do you think they are hinting at something? Can anyone look at similar blog and Twitter posts in the other languages to see if there are other hints anywhere, or is it exclusive to the English sites. Let's not get any hopes up, but speculation can be fun.

First off: Tons of people noticed from what I saw on Twitter and reddit.

Second: Other languages don't have those hints, but considering how many memes and poc culture stuff the Twitter Account has used lately, I fathom it's just a weird PR move.

I can’t even say it’s out of the realm of possibility, considering Quadratum is the confirmed destination of Riku at the end of Melody of Memory.

Eh, I wouldn't be surprised if there was more to it. It wouldn't be the strangest crossover event to emerge. I'm lukewarm about the Kingdom Hearts series at the moment, though. The first two games were decent but the third barely had any Final Fantasy within it - and I'm not the biggest fan of Disney, either. Still, I'd stomach a crossover for the sake of glamour and hopefully some orchestrion rolls.

I'm surprised the FFXIV Twitter page is so active when this place has effectively been given radio silence by comparison, though.
