Really, it's like a cruise ship captain deciding in the middle of the Caribbean that the ship needs a fourth swimming pool.
Sometimes features get added halfway through development – but that should always be to respond to a specific need, to fill a void. Not in a whim.
A competent studio does a lot of careful planning and exploratory work to avoid having to throw out large amounts of work later. Creating the conditions for work to be thrown away is the *opposite* of a director's job.
Ofc, lots of industry failsons and fauxteurs do it often.
