That's the only MGS game he made a mistake with. The others are fine as long as it's Snake.
It's not that it was that easy to make that back in 2001. Such face was made to contrast Snake. And playing as Snake in Sons of Liberty again would have been boring since he didn't do a thing while Raiden was the subject of the SS3 to have Snake's skills so he had lots of encounters. And there was no intention to play as Snake again cos Kojima was actually serious about Solid 2 being what he intended to be the final game. The biggest proof that Raiden was an avatar in Solid 2 were his dogtags with the player's name and his interactions with the AI.
