thats pure speculation, and you dont know that.
all indications are to the contrary, with the rewrite of the gfx engine they simply initially added less demanding elements for various components (lighting, smoke detail, tree's, shadows, etc) so that the combined elements would run better (and they do, it performs reasonably well on mid range pc's now). hopefully it is well enough designed so that once a near complete product runs well on current pc's, they can add/open some higher quality features for those elements that high end pc owners can then use
