it said, they are making download content that didnt fit on the disk,
so i would assume that if disk space wasnt an issue, then that content would be on the retail disk of the game.
also when i read the article. my understanding of it, was progressing in the game with the main story mission, you will only need to swap disks twice, but their are side mission that arent directly story related, that you can play, but would have to switch disks to get back to them, if they were on the previous disk. the wording was a bit ambiguous, but that was my understanding

Like I said in my earlier post, three DVDs have more space than a single layer blu-ray. So if anything, content was cut because of the blu-ray, since the DVDs still had another half gigabyte to fill, they could of probably held a DLC mission or two more.
And if you read the article it says you will only need to swap twice.

Yes, but when you program a game that requires multiple discs, data needs to repeat itself from disc to disc. So even though the amount of storage space totals to be greater, you are required to repeat data (such as the main character to say the least). Therefore, having more total space amongst several discs might not be as effecient as a single larger storage media. So your theory of the "lack of space" on Blu-ray doesn't necessarily hold water.
