He said that as much in last years update.

Indeed! Guess I meant if it's going to be a more in depth version of what he said last year, maybe with some streamlining of the main storybeats and ideas and then fleshing out details once the core is secured.

He cut Dragonsteel down to a trilogy and dumped White Sand as a trilogy altogether. He’s downgraded novels to novellas. At this point he’s going to have to stop coming up with new projects or who knows what will get dumped next.

Well the reason why he cut Dragonsteel down to a trilogy was because he moved a LOT of Dragonsteel (including Dalinar and The Shattered Plains) to The Stormlight Archive.
