I feel like I have a good memory for these games but one thing I can never remember is when AAI segments begin or end.

Right, I keep forgetting that you do more optional stuff in the Phoenix-style games than me. For me this case was longer than any original trilogy game (except maybe 1-5, I haven't replayed that since I started playing the games on the 3DS with its handy clock), but going back and taking a look at your own time figures that's not the case.

it's more the connection to Lang and the original president that's important (and to Simon, Marsh, and Dogen too I guess but they're not as big of a deal)

But the original president has been dead for years and doesn't actually matter to anyone since none of the characters who actually knew him (Lang's dad, John's mom) appear on screen. So it mostly connects to Lang and eh, we've come full circle - I don't think Lang is that central to AAI2.

I mean the obvious real connection is that the coverup of the body double crime helped create Simon Keyes as we know him in the first place, but exactly what that crime was is rather unimportant.
