Can cut content or cancelled games/novels...

I don't know what her argument was. But, IMO, if it's not part of an official release there is no reason to consider it is canon regardless of the writers's intent. Until it's officially released or some canon arbiter says otherwise, I see no reason to include it regardless of why it was cut.

In this case though, it's even more clear cut as the game wasn't even released and isn't canon.

She and Beni were quoting people like Leland Chee who were basically saying it was canon, at least that was the gist of it, I think.

In which case, whatever Chee was specifically talking about likely is canon.

They were talking about deleted scenes and stuff in general that doesn't conflict with the actual continuity.

Everything that is cut isn't cut for the same reasons some of the material in KotOR II was cut.

I'd need to see a specific quote to make a judgment on that.

Regardless, it's irrelevant for the Battlefront 3 cut-scenes as those were from an unpublished game and aren't deleted scenes.
