This interview was translated by Ryuji who has a less-than-stellar track record with translations. So, don't assume everything in them is 100% accurate.
This is the same person who did the early 20th anniversary translations that led people to believe that Nomura was deciding whether or not to call the newest game "KH4" or "Verum Rex". But Nomura was actually talking about whether or not to make KH4 or Verum Rex next.
Even in KH13's translation, Ryuji mentions they aren't sure how to translate certain things in this interview.
This interview does imply that Nomura's retirement was more of a joke than a serious thing with him joking about which will happen first, his retirement or the end of the series.
