I wouldn't draw comparisons with how the Cyberpunk development unfolded. That was a fairly unique case. I don't think it's fair to now start labeling every delay as a being a move to prevent such and such game from being "another Cyberpunk" situation. Delays are nothing new and the reasons for them can vary greatly.
I do agree that they shouldn't have dated it before they were certain, but we all know developers/publishers do it anyway. The practice isn't going to change. All we can hope is they put the extra time to good use so the eventual release is even better. There was talk a while back that Starfield was already content complete, so they're just in the stages of tweaking, optimizing and bug fixing.
