Blood Simple did a number of things.  Most importantly, it RESTORED the theatrical soundtrack (due to licensing issues, the VHS had different music).  But it did still change some things to be different from the theatrical version.  In the first shot of the busy bar interior, you could originally see a sound boom hanging in from above, and a reflection of the cameras on a mirror.  Most importantly, the whole "shoes walk to the jukebox" shot got removed, and that's the one that really bugs me.

That said, my point was that this level of tweaking, while occasionally annoying, is more or less normal and I'll tolerate it. Lucas is, as far as I know, the ONLY statistical outlier, and he's way, way, outside the normal range.
