Okay...

Now, keep in mind, the game still has the chance to tell me that this didn't actually happen, but...

This scientist just revealed that Solid Snake is actually some guy named Hans Davis. He's a scientist who did experiments on children for this company because they were trying to do... something that hasn't been revealed yet. Also, Hans was working on a Metal Gear.

Hans was actually an alias Snake took when he started working for the company. Why did the company want Snake working for them as their head scientist? Because the kids they were experimenting on would see him as a role model or something.

Why is Snake a scientist? ...Because the plot says so. Why did Snake choose to join an evil company? ...Because the plot says so.

So, why doesn't Snake remember any of this? Well, he's starting to remember small things, but he got amnesia for some unexplained reason and may have implanted false memories in his head about being Solid Snake during the years he was Hans.

Well... Maybe it's all a lie! Maybe Kojima can back his way out of this terrible plot thread... But there's a problem with the idea that none of this is true, other than Snake starting to remember stuff.

The product of their experiment is killing people on an airplane with little marionette doll things and carving numbers into their chest. The numbers are 19, 14, 1, 11, and 5... SNAKE...

It's still theoretically possible that they'll find a way of making none of this true, but to do that would require even dumber plot points than we're getting already.
