And now we've found each other.

Part of the issue(maybe), is not really changes to a movie be it on a Directors Cut or Special Edition. it is the Original Cut being available on a decent format, along side the Directors/Special Edition cut of a movie , so the FAN has the CHOICE of which version/or both they want to view and the Original Cut not being consigned to annals of film history never to be viewed a decent format again.
If the Original Cuts were available a lot of fans of these movies, may well be happy for as many Directors Cuts and Special Editions as possible, because as long as you have the Original Cut, you dont have to buy or watch these Directors Cuts or the Special Editions..(you may like both cuts, who knows????)
Excellent point.
