Would anyone actually miss this scene with the people standing about in cloud city?

I would. I like that it shows the people he's speaking to - in this way, it opens up Bespin even more, and for me that was a positive attempt with the SE. With Ady's enhancements to those shots and all of the other backgrounds in cloud city, they have all become seamless together and very beautiful looking.

I would, too. Not all the SE changes are bad; this is one of the good ones. I like these little shots that remind the viewer that the Star Wars galaxy is inhabited by "regular people," too, not just the heroes and villains on which the film focuses. It's a reminder of what the rebels are fighting for. And, as .Mac says, it opens up Bespin and makes it more believable.
