Schneider.

A lot of the subplots only existed to serve the original ending, and if they kept the original ending, they'd have to include all those subplots too, which would then stand out, so they'd have to include all the other subplots too. --> to an extent, because the original ending was woven into countless subplots scattered throughout the story which could now be cut, reducing the sheer quantity of material it had to cover.
