> Using off-the-shelf Unreal to remake Witcher 1 sounds like a smart way on paper to get their feet wet and move on from the old engine to the new one using a project they are already familiar with and can help them realign from old pipelines to new ones.

You're wrong in more than one way. As others already noted, Witcher 1 did not use REDengine - but also, it's not CD Projekt RED who is remaking Witcher 1; they outsourced the development to another studio.
