And that effect was the omission of a dungeon at best. Per Yoshida's own words from the Live Letter...

"Since there is a large assortment of content being implemented in Patch 4.3, and we believe players will be busy with things like the main scenario, we may push back the implementation of Heaven-on-High just a bit."

That doesn't give the impression they had to delay it due to Ultimate, but rather a decision they made purely on the belief there was enough content to satisfy players. Or at least keep them subscribed. Trying to fault Ultimate for this content drought is simply reaching for excuses. It had no bearing on Heaven on High being delayed.
