Maybe your descendants will only know the 1997+ versions, but my son (as long as I have anything to do about it) is only going to see the 1977 version (or at least anything pre 1997). I'm sure that once he's older he'll eventually see the 1997 version, but hopefully by then he'll say the same thing we are "Why did they change that? The original was fine as it is"
