Default Are the released demos polished like a normal track?

I recently came across a demo for "All About Loving You" which I probably got from YT but I kinda forgot about it, and I was shocked to hear how weak Jon sounds on it. If someone told me it was a much newer demo, I would believe it.
"Postcards From The Wasteland" is from the same album, but Jon sounds better.

I'm comparing those two because they sound similar, more stripped than the other Bounce demos. On the other demos he sounds more than fine.

Postcards was released as a b-side, the AALY didn't, as far as I know.

So I'm guessing those released demos are not so raw as the name would suggest. It seems they get the same treatment as the proper tracks. Although I think I remember older demos sounding much less polished.

I understand there's different parts during the recording process and demos could get reworked several times, but I guess I was expecting the demos to sound more ... untouched...
