What I think most likely happened is that you grew up on the 97 SE, and you liked parts of the movies and disliked other parts, independent of any other version.
The parts you disliked like Jedi Rocks you quickly accepted as inferior and were eager to replace them in your “perfect version”, but the parts you never had a problem with or enjoyed, like Victory Celebration, remain your preference over the original theatrical releases.
This can be the only explanation for your defense of things like “Alert my Star Destroyer” and nonsense Coruscant edits into the original films.
Victory Celebration is clearly inferior; regardless of one’s subjective musical taste, including shots of different worlds that aren’t even in the movie makes it a terrible edit.
What actually happened is that I had known both versions impartialy and on equal terms, and I could objectively compare the two.
Regarding “Alert my Star Destroyer”, I do not think it is intrinsically good, it is just that the original line was extremely bad.
When it comes to celebration song, it is by far superior to yub nub. That is simply the truth.
