This line from the article really sums it up:

He also supposedly plans for a "director’s cut" – sorry, then what was it we watched last fall, exactly? Someone else's cut – called Megalopolis Unbound: longer, weirder, maybe some dream sequences. (Was the whole movie not his own dream sequence?)

In all seriousness, the "director's cut" is mostly used nowadays as a marketing term, it seems.

It always was a marketing ploy.
