So why would they waste so much money if literally 99% of their fans are not even happy, 99% of fans treats them as gaming industry's messiah

Yes, it should prove you wrong. They went above and beyond to polish that game, even though they could've just moved on to the next project. If they were desperate for money, they wouldn't have made the DE free for owners of the base game.

Plenty of studios make bank with definitive editions. Just look at Rockstar and their GTA trilogy remakes.

It's not just fans but the entire gaming community that treats them with reverence. Anything that Larian does will be watched by the gaming community. So DE will bring attention to the game. How much it costs depends on what they add to it, but they can recoup their costs and make a pretty penny out of a second round of sales if what they have is enticing enough.
