>R07 already confirmed everything.

Not really. You're not suppose to listen to the author for an answer. Ryukishi says so himself.

>In other words, what I want to say is that, whatever is the answer, even the truth (oracle) according to the writer (god)!, they are not absolute.
The truth can be altered many times over by the hands of a META being of a higher stratum than even the supreme god of the story, the writer, this meta-being being the writer himself in the future.
In other words, it's an extremely rough argument but, as long as we talk about 'last part queen problem', we'll collapse into the dilemma of the mystery being an impossible puzzle.

>what applies for one thing applies for another and if it doesn't, it makes the author a hypocrite
He said time and time again he wouldn't give an answer episodes before the last one came out. He wanted to make a story where people could continuously discuss without spoiling anything since there would not be a true answer.

Say, for example, someone is reading Higurashi and another person just says Takano is the culprit, it ruins the experience but if someone says Yasu is the culprit, it's the same as saying a witch did it since it doesn't name anyone in the cast.
