Say that during WW2, the Nazis decide to delay their plans of outright extermination until after the war is won. At the moment, they will use the Jews (and everyone else in the concentration camps) as free slave labour to make weapons/ammunition/equipment for the war effort. Many will still die - from hunger, abuse, disease and exhaution.

But...

1) How much lower is the death toll ITTL?

2) Is there any chance of Hitler approving of this plan?

3) Would this be considered just as evil as OTL's Holocaust? (long and agonizing suffering rather than a "quick" death from gas)

4) How would the Nazis be perceived ITTL? Somewhat less negatively?

5) How worse is Holocaust denial? (They can always resort to saying "It was an unfortunate accident" and that "They really didn't meant to kill them")

6) Does a lower shock factor butterfly away Israel?
