That's like saying Evangelion is not metaphorical at all, because Anno stated that he doesn't even comprehend the references and that he just used them because they sounded exotic. Authors will often tell you things of this nature. Another example would be 'Ergo Proxy', which does have meaning, but they said the same thing in that it's just because it sounded cool. I wrote a 20 page analysis on that. Nothing means anything; post-modernist destruction of literature, if you believe those I suppose.
