Assuming that through a combination of worse choices by Hitler/German generals and better ones by the Allies result in the defeat of Germany in Autumn 1944, how would the peace deal change? Let's say for the sake of argument that the final lines in Germany fall roughly similarly to OTL between the Wallies and Soviets, perhaps more of north Germany in Wallied hands due to landing there towards the end after a more rapid German collapse, the Soviets taking Czechoslovakia entirely and parts of Bavaria as the Allies focus more on the north. Would the peace then be more harsh with Roosevelt still surviving for longer, how would the Allies handle not having had the Yalta Agreement among others that happened later in 1944 and in 1945, would the quicker collapse mean less bitterness, would the quicker defeat mean a less deadly Holocaust, and would the USSR be less damaged and more potentially threatening in a Cold War?
