Besides "The films need to be the way I want them," has Lucas stated anything as to why the Blu-rays became the travesty that they are?

Here's a funny story from Marc Weilage, one of the colorists working on ANH and ROTJ in 2004:

BTW, note that there was stuff from the 2004 transfers I did where we ran out of time and Lucas was not able to get more fixes done. Whenever this happened on a specific shot, George would turn to his assistant and say, "note that as a BSI fix." After he left the room, I turned to my data op and asked, "what's a 'BSI'?" And he laughed and said, "that's a Boxed Set Issue, because George eventually wants to put all six films out as one set, which will be the final-final versions." To my knowledge, this set has yet to be released. http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/true-original-star-wars-trilogy-blu-rays-coming-in-2014-or-2015-from-disney.324294/page-7

To my knowledge that BSI was released in 2011.

 My God, now I've heard everything! Those changes we saw in the Blu-rays, they were just... waiting in the wings... ready to strike!
