But Sephiroth does know Cloud already at that point of the story in every version, including the original. Does this notion come from any book or interview or something?

I really no see a problem of undertanding all these >>9818504 as just the same entity; it's simply the one Sephiroth native of that reality acting on multidimensional knowledge (including time/4th dimension) extracted from the Lifestream. He's just more proactively messing with Cloud because in this version he knows he's by definition the key to change his own fate.

In contrast, untextured (or mostly untextured) models designed to make the most of that approach have a "built in" level of detail that stays balanced regardless of context, for better or worse: the models never look "better" as such, but the smoother edges in higher resolutions aren't as unflattering as with textured models. Picrel is a cherrypicked example but still an old favorite.
