Yeah, I am not sure how much "handcrafting" happens for individual generic conversation. My guess would be that there are changes made to the conversation system to improve some things, that in return impact the others. Needless to say, I am sure they won't be able to check every single cutscene for every single race to see if something broke.
I don't expect them to test every generic cutscene, but whatever they did impacts important story cutscenes and dialogues. And if they make a change to how the camera works in the cutscenes they better test that it works for all races and sizes before they release it into the wild. The camera regularly getting stuck in bushes or behind furniture and shoulders is not okay. The same goes for the newly implemented zoom on faces all the time (which is a matter of taste, I admit, but I prefer to see the body language of the characters talking, right now it feels like I'm missing out on content). It worked fine on release and now it's kinda broken.
