Can you explain the continuity error? It shows R2 being winched onto the x-wing, and in the next scene it shows him being lowered into his spot within the fuselage.
EDIT: I studied it closely and i can see what you mean, but I honestly would never have noticed if I wasn’t looking for it.

Also, I will leave the link up for now, and if a mod asks me to remove it I’ll edit the post and start using PMs instead.

I would also argue that it falls under preservation, as it is an original unaltered scene that was shot alongside the rest of the film. I would agree if the scene was loaded with CGI “improvements”, but as far as I can tell it’s exactly the same as it was back in 1977. My color corrections and sequencing revert the scene back to what it probably looked like when it was still included in early edits of the film during the post production process. Deleted scenes deserve to be preserved as well, because at worst they provide insight into the production of the film, and at best they contain something vital to the plot that should never have been removed to begin with (compare Blade Runner: The Final Cut to the original theatrical cut for an example of this).
