You're never going to get a good answer to this, because Blade Runner's artistic merit was enhanced by the Director's Cut changes, not devalued.
The same is true of Kingdom of Heaven, while we're talking about Ridley Scott.
Art is malleable and constantly changing. It's not to be placed on some pedestal where it can't be touched.
