And that when writing the script he's only had Drive to work with. And that despite Kamen Rider Specter being a thing the character of Makato wasn't created yet. And the actor even complained that it was hard to get a feel for the character as result when the movie filiming began around episode 5 and 6.

Also Einstein and Bebe Ruth were also going to be Gamma but were cut due to licensing issues.

Which: this is why you don't give the winter crossover movie to someone who doesn't write for either show.

If you had someone from Ghost writing this movie (because it's about 85% a Ghost story), they could've written ahead a bit, knowing where the story would go with Makoto's character, with Alain's character (who doesn't have a line of dialogue in this movie, despite "debuting" as Necrom), with Takeru's character, etc. The script can help the actors understand where the series would be in a couple months, but only if the person writing knows where the series is heading.
