Didn't many of the cut scenes still end up in the film, just in an altered form? Such as the Mos Eisley sequences and the Jabba sequence? Those scenes had to have been restored in their original form before they were "enhanced" with CGI.

Well, did they restore the mos eisley scenes and then destroy the negative by printing the CG directly onto the old film? Or did they restore it, digitally add the changes and add new parts into the negative and put the real parts into storage?
