But he did say that both the claims of no negatives existing, or that they were conformed to the SE were pretty much bogus.

Nice to have some confirmation for a change isn't it? ;)

This seems like a pretty big deal to me, to have it stated unequivocally that the negative was not physically recut.

Well, if there are copies of the negative that are "fine" then a nice, simple release of the OOT shouldn't be too difficult for the Mouse. Keep in mind I'm not talking about a restoration here, just a 1080p transfer of the original versions to be included in some kind of 2 disc edition that will cost an absurd amount of money.
