Excerpt from the recent translated Q&A with Nomura:
One of the leading theories for Subject X at the moment is that Skuld traveled forward in an ark as Daybreak was being destroyed. Granted, we of course don't see this happen, but we also don't see her get out and view the wreckage with Ephemer, so either is a real possibility.
This answer seems to point towards Skuld being present there with Ephemer, as Xehanort's mother is somehow "related" to Skuld. Therefore Skuld would have to have existed in that time to continue her bloodline and have someone be "related" to her. The wording of the answer is intentionally vague, so "related" could perhaps mean any number of things, but this is how I'm interpreting it, especially with the emphasis on bloodlines going forward.
If that is the case, and Skuld built Scala with Ephemer, then what candidates are left to be Subject X? Seems to me like Ava is the only character who could still fit.
I'm sure Missing-Link will provide some clarification, in due time. Perhaps we'll just have to wait and see.

Ooh, I love meta-narratives in fiction when they're done right (a la Bravely Default/Second and Undertale/Deltarune), so I'd be very excited if some of this were true.
I first heard something akin to this theory during this discussion by TFS Gaming (I tried to find the exact time but was unable to, it's brought up by Kirran sometime in the middle of the video) but haven't heard much since.
An interesting point in the doc is the theory that MoM is trying to start a "new game". This instantly made me think of the last scene of the epilogue, when Youth in White mentions a "new game he heard about". Very peculiar.
If KHUx could update with more than 5 missions every month we might get some answers to this eventually.

Is it? I hadn't seen any news confirming for sure. It's better than no ending at all, but it still leaves a bitter taste in my mouth is all.

"Complete edition" yeah sure, I'll consider it complete when they un-cancel the planned DLC that has the true ending. The closest we'll get to that is that JP only novel.
I bought the base game when it first released and pledged not to buy any DLC until it was all out telling the whole story. Guess that'll never happen now. ?
