If you research some of the producers/directors/deb/Matthew Goode/Teresa leading up to the show, they explained how much had to be cut out for time to introduce the new plot lines. It was strictly a time construction problem. As for Yseabeau, as tv is a visual medium they found it hard to portray her maternal nature towards Matthew/her age as one of the oldest living vampires if they made her as young as the books, and Lindsey Duncan was acually one of Deb's inspirations when writing Ysabeau's character which is great to see.
