That makes a lot of sense, and a lot less worrying. Doing reshoots to better position the movie in today's increasingly overcrowded cinema market is a lot more reassuring than doing them because the film isn't living up to expectations.
Also wasn't there an image of a clapperboard from the reshoots? I can't seem to find it, but I do remember it being setup J. That means it's either the 9th or 10th camera setup for that particular scene, which would indicate just adding a couple of extra shots here and there.

As for the amount they're changing, I doubt you could redo the film so much in 3 weeks. You can change significant aspects, sure, like the ending or replacing certain moments in certain scenes.
It really would depend on what they're filming. 15 days is a very long time for filming dramatic scenes, for example, but not much for effects scenes. I'm currently in the process of editing a feature film that was shot in 15 days and is looking to be about 70 minutes long. So you can absolutely change a substantial chunk in that time, if needed.
