Do they think people are that stupid that they can't differentiate between the two versions? I wonder what they are going to do about The Flash then. they will likely just keep flash going, it is a main money maker and by the time the movie comes around it will be on season 5, so it will have enough to diffenciate, but i agree it is stupid, killing of deadshot is one thing, but this just kills the squad all togther Funny thing is Katana is back for a future episode, does that mean they will kill her too? lol

wait ... OMG Katana is the Person in the Grave !!! :-D

But Hal Jordan wasn't been forshadowing. This are simply Insider Easter Eggs for the Fanboys. To bring Hal, or any other Green Lantern, to the Arrowverse blast off totally the budget of the show for special Effects. In Fact they have to deal with that problem in the Flash allready.

Of course it was foreshadowing, they've been talking about Coast City and Ferris Air since Season 1. Who is that missing pilot then? Who is the guy in the bomber jacket with the name "Jordan" in the Coast City bar? They are a little more than easter eggs, they are blatant hints towards that character and they've been happening often enough. And I said "Hal Jordan" not "Green Lantern". ;) If they were allowed to intoduce a character like that, they could find some way to work around those limitations. Showing up in costume right at the end, etc. Anyway, I hope at least Katana isn't a victim of that mindless embargo, too.
