ALO being a copy of SAO doesn't explain everything, far from it: there is no way ALO would be designed without making a complete overhaul in term of accounts and main frame for the game itself, and since it was already setup 1 year before SAO was terminated, I don't see how it is remotely possible to have Kayaba's "consciousness" being present in ALO despite he surely made a program of himself the moment he dismantled SAO.
It just makes Kayaba's presence in ALO absolutely non sensical, even moreso his ability to support Kazuto.
There's no way that ALO could have a complete overhaul in terms of accounts from the way SAO handled them. If they had, Sugou would have been unable to use the game for it's intended purpose of capturing SAO players for experimentation. The Sword Art Online game client would just refuse to connect to ALO. The level of compatability is why Kirito got some carry over from SAO. We also already knew that ALO was running an earlier version of Cardinal compared to what SAO used. But nevertheless, it's Cardinal. It and the sensory I/O interface was originally created by Kayaba. He'd have plenty of chances to bury a back door in them, and spotting it would not necessarily be simple.
