I don't think that's the point. The point is people bought the HD version on pre-order not knowing about the missing six seconds. They didn't have the choice.

People may have liked the choice between a slightly cheaper, FULL version of the film on a good DVD with a nice transfer as opposed to a HD version that they feel is slightly incomplete. I know this will make me unpopular around here -- but a movie being in HD isn't always the main selling point for people. The content of the actual movie is. And you better be ready for some stick if the release hasn't got all the content available, no matter how 'unimportant' the footage may be to the majority of us (me included).

I guess the lesson is -- wait a few weeks for the reviews. Then wait for the stuff that the reviews initially missed!
