Changes can be made ridiculously fast. Dont be fooled by the mumbojumbo.

I was under the impression that all the retooling for ET was done for the theatrical release. So the new audio was ready when the DVD was pressed. No last minute changes or anything like that. The only question was how it was all going to be packaged and if the original version would be included. Thankfully, it was.
