The legendary composer credited Sakaguchi’s natural leadership:

“We didn’t even have a proper corporate organisation, yet everybody listened to him. It’s a kind of quality you just have to be born with.”

That and leaving his daughter with Cloud and Tifa. Especially since I've played FF7: Rebirth, where Barrett goes through a little arc about taking care of his adopted daughter and wanting to be better at it. After leaving her frequently during his dangerous job as a member of AVALANCHE or the events of FF7, you think he'd choose to spend more time with her. (I know people have complaints about the new games, but that's one of the things I actually thought they improved over the original - except for the end of Dyne and the placement of a comedic fight there.)

I think they were just determined to thrust Cloud and Tifa in a little family and so took Marlene from Barrett and gave her to them.
