I think it makes perfect sense. The first arc was the absolute best of SAO by a country mile. Going back to that best arc once again just makes good sense. All the more so if it will lead to it being even better than the original was anyways.

Tension doesn't seem an issue either. When was the last time this franchise had tension after that opening arc? Never been any real danger to the main cast and Kirito's victory has always been locked in. Not that it is a big deal anyways. Good prequel stories exist that have you knowing where the end point is going to be. And those can still have extremely strong emotional moments regardless of knowing what is coming.
