I also very much like the original Rogue One and think its theatrically fine as was intended on release, but those deepfakes added to Hals V2 won me over from the original version, this can no longer be called a half-assed edit 😁

The less changes the better but still looking at TM2YC change list if there were to be any fixes to use:

Reordered opening act, which I felt was choppy in the original version. Now we do not return to older Jyn until it’s time for her to be rescued and time for her story to begin again. Death Star scene has also been brought forward to establish the threat, before we see how others are responding to that threat. I think these changes make things clearer.
-Hals removal of Cassian in the beginning to better follow Jyn is understandable but that scene is a missed
Altered blue-milk shot so the camera pans with Lyra’s movement across the kitchen, instead of zooming right in on the milk, which I found to be distracting.
-subtle yet effective
Removed distracting fan-service cameo from Dr. Evazan and Ponda Baba.
-Already fixed in V2

Removed a few seconds of Bodi dithering too long over the ‘Rogue One’ call sign.
-Already fixed in V2

If more aggresive changes preferred then best off with TM2YC Rogue One edit.
