True, the 'Final Aeon' thing bugs me. Unless Yuna just lied to them (Again...) for some reason, because they broke tradition and used more 'modern' means to kill Sin off for good. However, Spira helped immensely in the final showdown by singing the Hymn of the Fayth, and it is implied during the ending that everybody was watching the battle from the ground. I don't think her saying 'The only way to defeat Sin is to tear into it and destroy its core' is gonna cause major uproars.

However, maybe she was panicking and just blurted out the wrong thing, since she grew up with that tradition her whole life and it naturally came as a first thought. But in X-2.5, she has her memories erased at one point. It's unclear whether it was her memories of the events on the island that was erased, or her feelings and memories of Tidus, which in return erases her memories on having an open mind about things and finding other ways to solve problems, which Tidus helped her immensely in that area. Either way is plausible, though considering the tone this is heading in, it probably would be the latter that is more likely.

On a side note: If X-3 does happen to exist, I bet a big part of the theme of that game would be lying. Yuna lying to Tidus about her new love, Kurgum possibly lying to Chuami about his love for Yuna, Chuami possibly lying to Lulu and everyone else about her father... It makes sense since Yevon was basically lying to everybody in Spira. The lying would start hurting a lot of people too, like how at the end of Will, Tidus is in denial about Yuna loving somebody else, and it's paining him.
