Reply to Final Fantasy VII's "villain"

I'm sick of trying to figure out what is truly the villain of Final Fantasy VII; The core villain you fight at the end. Is it Jenova in Sephiroth's form? Is it a clone of Sephiroth? What!?
Seriously, I get it. The only real Sephiroth died at the Nibelheim Reactor and now exists without form in the Lifestream. Great, so it's all this easy to understand, right? No. Just simply not for me. I get that the "Sephiroth" the party chases around in Final Fantasy VII is actually Jenova in Sephiroth's form travelling to the Northern Crater...but wait. Who the hell is that guy in the crater? He looks so much like Sephiroth. Wait, is this a clone of Sephiroth at the Nortern Crater, or is it Jenova again? If it is a clone of Sephiroth, why does he only have pants on and then have his full costume on at the bottom of the crater where Holy is being kept? Did he randomly change clothes while sleeping, or did he wake and take Sephiroth's form by adding clothes to himself? How does it transform twice into beings that look like Sephiroth? Is it Jenova once again imitating his form, but gradually more monstrously?
After you defeat this "Safer Sephiroth" who might actually be Jenova again, who is this shirtless Sephiroth you fight in the lifestream with only your enormous sword and limit break to help defeat him? Is that the Sephiroth you saw in the Northern Crater that you gave the Black Materia to? What the hell is going on? You give "Shirtless Sephiroth" the Black Materia, chase "Sephiroth" down the crater, find Jenova's heart in the form of a giant boss, defeat that, fall into the area where Holy is being kept by what appears to be Sephiroth in clothing all of the sudden (we'll call him Maybe Sephiroth), and then "Maybe Sephiroth" transforms twice into a "Cocoon Form", then a "God form", then you beat those, and fight "Shirtless Sephiroth" in the lifestream which appears to be tainted by his presence.
Anyone have any less of a life than me that knows this story in and out? I've been trying to figure this out for years!
