I'm telling you, these are NOT the type of changes you decide few weeks before a release just to release a bit earlier. This stuff was cut a long time ago. You wouldn't even be able to "readjust" a game with changes of this scope in barely weeks.

If that was not the case, the implication would also be that in a month or so the missing content could be fixed and reintegrated into the game. I can PROMISE you this won't be the case.
In fact I'd be shocked if most of the "cut content" will be back in a year or so for the "Definitive edition". Chances are most of what was cut at this point is just gone.

Calling a direct quite "cold reading" implies much more than you should be implying if you want to have these discussions in good faith. And there is not only cut content. Like I said a few posts up, there is also bugs and oversights that could have used that extra month of polish.

And when looking at stuff like Mol, Karlach and Astarion's quest, and pretty much the whole of Act 3, it seems very plausible there were significant cuts much later in production than any normal timeline would allow.
