Anyone else think Empire Strikes Back's Special Edition is actually better than the Theatrical Cut?

as a forum member on this here site that was founded with the goal of preserving the original theatrical releases of the Original Trilogy , I have to vote a big NO . As a " Special Edition " which is what they should have remained as an alternative viewing experience to the originals , the only changes to ESB for that I liked were the cleaned up matte lines /transparency issues and also the views outside the windows on Cloud City , as that was depicted in Ralph Mcquarrie’s concept art and production paintings . But , as said on these boards a million times …no one would have an issue with them if we had a high quality High Def release of the originals .
