I'd definitely say they erred on the side of cutting too much if anything. I think the side characters are really critical to the story overall, and it wouldn't be the same to me if they were gutted too much.

Yeah I mean I'm not a film editor, nor do I know what they actually only cut in post production vs what they didn't even animate, but I think if they wanted to keep all the side characters, they cut too many subplots, and if they wanted to cut all those subplots to keep the runtime down, then they should have cut some of the side characters wholesale. They didn't find the right runtime for this story imo. They cut either too little, or too much, and I think a world where it had a longer runtime is also a world where I would like it more frankly.
