They may have thought about using the footage in the SE but decided against it, yes.
Btw. I would call 1996 mid-90's
I'll accept that answer as well.Yea, but it is possible they wanted to include new space shots but for some reason they where left out of the final '97 SE print.

Its also possible he is referring to un-seen BOE footage in early ROTJ trailers that might have been re-used for the SE trailer.
BOE?Btw. I would call 1996 mid-90's
