If you as a creator make a work that is "problematic", I feel like you should need to stand by it and answer for that.


They recasting an actor and changing jokes IS standing by it and answering for it, especially when they literally said why they were making said changes. It’s them saying “this wasn’t okay, and we’re making sure it doesn’t happen again.”

Problematic shit doesn’t get a pass because it’s in “art.”

I am not arguing to give it a pass. I am saying preservation is the ultimate goal of a remaster (otherwise do a remake). And we don’t not preserve art because it’s problematic. And yes, the original still exists blah blah but often the Remaster becomes the new version given it is modern and easier to access.
