The answers to those questions alas, would have required a second season for us to find out. What I have always assumed though, is that dispensing with the Cylons and freeing Baltar in the last episode of season 1, was intended to make the Cylons a less visible presence in season 2 with Baltar demoted to "Guest star" status in which he in all likelihood would have been seen again as a baseship commander, but only on the kind of one in five or six episode type of appearances that Lieutenant Gerard would make in "The Fugitive." The Cylons have to be a threat that shows up once in a while, but just not on the regular basis any longer.
