> As for FOV, which seems to be the cause, I found a reference that says the fov is 75 until you meet Alyx. (Wait, what?)

Agreed: What?

Can someone please shed some light on whether this is true and why that would be?

I don't know if it's true, but maybe they want you to look around City 17 and admire the scenery in the earlier part of the game (larger FoV) and later want you to focus on action once you meet Alyx (smaller FoV)?

75 is a rather low FoV, so that seems unlikely.
