Either way, it at least solves a big issue for me - if he's not a primal, we don't need to know why his dead husk is still there instead of going back to aether.
Seeing how this is a final fantasy game midgardsormr can come back to life at somepoint seeing how is body is still there with skin and everything and not just shit load of bones lol.
