So Shin might make a reappearance in the story. I meant the opposite. revealing more about Shin back then, could've revealed too much about the story now. Mitsuki too is an artificial human, and the mysterious Vessel is hinted to be one too. So if we knew all the facts about Shin we may have been spoiled about potential critical future developments in the current storyline or Mitsuki's story line.

It also means that we may retroactively apply what we learn in these stories to Shin.
