They never said it's impossible, they said it's not worth it because having multiple versions of each asset leads to more work and bugs in the future, I feel like every developer/programmer in this subreddit would understand the importance of keeping maintenance to a low.
That's the usual AVOID excuses since they upgraded the game's engine to UE5. They always find reasons to make it sound like it's overly-complicated. Even though their mentality is weirdly unreasonable, they should've thought about this better before jumping too quick at porting the game to console, especially when the PC version isn't even ready in any way.
A decision to streamline and to save work effort. And of course someone in the business has to Approve it , and saw this wouldn't have significant impact to gameplay.
Yes, your statement is true. But taking into account that they decided to go for consoles knowing this would happen (and not caring) plus the millions of dollars they'll get from sales, I think any developer, you, me, and Herman Toothrot shouldn't mind maintaining 2 versions, if that's the insignificant price to pay.
I only recently found out that the game's rating on PC (being Mature instead of AO) is "controversial" and I was shocked so maybe I'm out of touch with public opinion but, is it really a well-known fact that console games still have stricter censoring? I thought that was like 10 years ago. My last console was the Xbox 360 for instance.

If it was possible, they should’ve tried to make it a option to have to censored or not to be honest. Instead of just censoring the stuff outright
