Agreed. Ryuukishi's thrown us the Rules X Y Z as a tool to help in solving the mysteries, but other than that, I see all the Higurashi connections as fanservice.
That said, I don't doubt the connections. I honestly think Bern and Lambda have some connection to Rika and <spoiler>, be it witch incarnations or created by Featherline in the image of two characters from a game she enjoyed watching. And yeah, I also think there's a game inbetween Higurashi and Umineko, where the Logic Error/hell takes place.
However, all connections are irrelevant to solving Umineko, and are just for fans to distract themselves with while Ryuukishi prides himself over his clever ploys.
