Please could you answer a few questions about Project 4K80?

After watching the fight between Luke and Vader in cloud city I noticed Luke’s lightaber looks thinner in the beginning than other versions of the original cut (35mm, 16mm and home releases) and resembles the 4K blu ray from Disney, from what I’ve observed the 16mm print and all home releases have a different colour timing (vaders lightsaber is orange and Luke’s is less white looking) from 35mm prints but the sabers look the same as they do on 35mm prints for example in the retrograde grindhouse edition the blades shape is just as thick as other versions despite the colour differences from puggos 16mm version but in this restoration although it’s similar to the grindhouse version in terms of colour timing Luke’s blade seems rotoscoped differently as with all post 1997 special edition versions. Is it just me? I know it’s a 35mm print but I couldn’t say which one all theses frames are from?
