Actually the shuttle sequence fits in between a musical cut anyway.

I disagree - it may fit VISUALLY, but no way in hell does it fit in musically. In the good old days of fim appreciation when people had attention spans longer than 3 seconds the music was often considered a work of art in its own right, and FLOWED with the visuals enhancing the on-screen action and providing much of the emotional connection between viewer and story/characters. This is just an absolute trashing of a once beautiful and 'heart pounding' scene with absolutely top notch pacing and editing. It now resembles the kind of thing you'd get in a computer game cut scene quite frankly. This piece of music was scored to the 1980 version of this scene. It consequently fits it like a glove. One change in the scene disrupts the intended musical flow - Whoever was responsible should be ashamed at doing such a bad hatchet job.
