That doesn't mean Jason isn't in the loop, he'd certainly no better then you or I. If Zenimax/Bethesda has already made the decsion to say exclude the Courier's stash and the gun runners arsenal from any disk release its perfectly reasonable Jason might know.
Or he could simply be talking out of his ass and only thinks he knows.
But then again, Bergman could be right with his assessment. By saying this, he's already admitting the game isn't worth re-issuing. Which I'd have to agree with, actually. I wouldn't dump any more money in this project than I had to if I was Zenimax/Bethesda, I'd just approve a few quick patches to Lonesome Road and then write the game off.
