I was under the impression we saw a different entrance to the Yavin hangar in R1. There are four sides after all.

Yeah, that’s possible. I did read somewhere (can’t find it now of course!) that RO had gone out of its way to recreate these environments as closely to the ‘original’ as possible (Yavin, Death Star, Star Destroyers etc etc) so I’d argue that they were definitely recreating the entranceway from ANH as presented in the SE. To me it’s a very different style so, while it could conceivably be a different doorway, it’s kind of odd. Did the space-Aztecs only buff and polish the one side then? I interpreted it as a ‘canon declaration’ as soon as I saw it - however pedantic that may seem! I’m guessing it was pure oversight - I’m sure no-one thought that a cantankerous old SW fan was going to get sensitive about an old matte painting! But here I am ha ha!
