I don't either entirely believe it's that simple myself, but when writing something for an encyclopedia, one cannot discount the authors' stated intentions and say things like "for whatever reason they tried to adapt both books into one", when they have already stated a reason in a few interviews. Multiple reasons, in fact. We may doubt it personally, but that's our personal business. An encyclopedia gathers information. It is not our job to psychlogically analyze the creators' intentions, and let our conclusions supersede their own claims, which is what you have often done. Right now, that "for whatever reason" is an outright lie.
