It isn't that simple. Both modes will have to be QA'd still, both by pre-submission tests and by the QA team. There are going to be mode-specific bugs that will need to be addressed. There are many aspects of console game development that will now literally be twice the amount of work. You cannot just assume that because one mode works the other will work fine as well.
