Also, if the WSJ is saying “a person familiar with the matter”…that doesn’t mean it was some receptionist or some statement from 10 years ago. It quite clearly means they talked to someone who knows, and that there are no plans to restore the OOT now or any time in the foreseeable future.
There’s nothing clear about it. They don’t give any kind of indication that their source is even someone at Lucasfilm. It’s the journalistic equivalent of “my friend’s friend knows this guy”.
