The original effects shots are in HD on the Blu-Ray. They had access to the original film masters. That's what was broadcast. That's as good as they can look because they didn't have the original elements to peice back together like they did for the recent TNG Blu's. The CG effects were added because CBS figured that they couldn't get anyone to show the re-runs without some kind of catch. The original versions are still out there and preserved.
