I think the rules do not really address this particular (and peculiar!) situation.

What I would probably do with this one is create a main profile for the Italian/German version and a bonus film child profile for the US/English version. I know that's stretching the rules for bonus films a bit, but I do not really see an alternative way to do justice to the strange characteristics of this release.

That's actually better than wha I suggested.

Yeah, that makes sense. I definitely buy that over the easter egg solution.

Normally we always profile the longer cut.

Actually, the rules don't tell us to do that, so we shouldn't be.  We should profile the version 'as it is sold'. 

If I have a set that 'includes the director's cut', I profile the theatrical version.  The rule only applies to the run time, not the entire profile.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.
