Sharegate migration headache

Hi, I posted in r/sharegate as well but there are only 44 members there and I’m hoping for some quick ideas.
Basically my company recently purchased another. My manager and I have been migrating the new companies sharepoint into ours via sharegate.
Unfortunately, sharegate seems to have replaced two of our sites during this migration and there doesn’t seem to be any evidence of what we had prior. I know it’s a long shot but are there any tips to undo this before I recreate the two sites from scratch and try to make them resemble to sites I never go into? 😂
Thank you!
Update: I rebuilt skeleton versions of the 2 sites and letting the owners worry about the rest. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Looking at this, the main issue seems to be how this is handled and that’s where it gets complicated This could age very differently in a week.

If we’re being honest, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven

this depends heavily on what happens next and that’s the part people are stuck on That part stands out. Others will probably see it differently.

Putting bias aside, the wording alone shifts how people read this That’s the key detail here.

If you zoom out, the framing does a lot of heavy lifting here and that’s where the disagreement starts Feels like an opening move, not an ending.

Just reading this, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which is why the comments look the way they do This could age very differently in a week. That’s the impression it gives me.
