Emperor has different coloured eyes to the one that tadpoles us.
So the Emperor definitely isn't the one who directly tadpoled us. He may have still been on board and might have orchestrated the tadpoling, but he didn't personally do it.
Was about to comment on this, the EYES are the reason why this Theory Falls Apart, the Emperor has PURPLE EYES, the Mindflayer that Tadpoled us, However had ORANGE EYES.
