The version I created has very little to do with speculation. It is not intended to be a "director's cut" or what the original cut of the film was like. With one or two minor exceptions, it follows the shooting script as closely as possible given the material available. That's all it was intended to do. That's why I refer to it as the "Extended Shooting Script Edition". I believe that studying it this way can help give history-minded fans the "big picture" of how the movie was planned, filmed, edited and possibly re-edited to become the movie we now know.
