The evacuated Germans were pretty critical to allowing the line to stabilize as the Allies had to pause during the retreat. It would seem the cadres that escaped were crucial to rebuilding a front line that stymied the Allies come Autumn.

Of course they were. Apart from that they made a fighting withdrawl possible, by forming ad hoc Kampgruppen and delay the Allied advance, like the 116th Panzer did for example. To say it wouldn't have made a difference is simply not true.
