My only question is why do people think all of the hints are just about the Shanks/Kidd fight?

Redon has never been that singular with his hints and Oda is never gonna dedicate an entire chapter to a fight. Especially not a fight we've been told is a "oneshot".
People here just want to talk about powerscaling and to make fun of each other (Sanji fans Vs Zoro fans,Zoro fans Vs Kidd fans etc.) but you are right,i think we might actually see something about the destruction of Egghead,who knows.
