The way Lucas works, things change pretty often. I bet you any money Luke and Leia weren't sisters in 77. That's just the way the guy works, he changes things because he's obsessive complusive and continues to think that there's ways of improving the movie. It's unfortunate but it's all too common with filmmakers and artists of all kinds. Heck, I do it sometimes. (No one complains because not many people see my movies).
I doubt they were siblings even when ESB came out. Deleted scene script.
Anyways, all I know of the originals is of ANH since, I haven't seen the other original versions(sure I can read on the internet about the changes but, seeing it would be different.). So, I think that it's better because, when Han shoots first it looks like it's actually happening. Lucas's reworking made Han look like a dear in headlights. Out of all the changes the only one's that I would see as, justifiable to an "original vision" are the following:
1
2
3
The rest I think he's making it up as, he goes along.
