There have been infamous bouts of Vince rewriting shows multiple times. And that happening to shows often enough for that to be a thing that is widely known is all well and good, but Dave saying "plans change" comes off as a move of a notorious bullshitter; the guy who just has to be right even if he was way off. It was to a point where there was great disparity between the number of times he'd say "I didn't see that coming" to him saying "well... y'know... plans change".
Completely agree. Everyone knows plans change. The issue with someone like Meltzer constantly pointing out this obvious fact is that he makes his living "speculating" on the plans. When he says "plans change" he just comes off as someone who's giving you a fine print disclaimer that he may be completely wrong but in no way is it his fault.
