I'm guessing that Kubrick wasn't responsible for that (hinted at in that article)? Unlike Lucas, who is responsible for messing up his films.
Kubrick never got around to supervising any modern transfers of his films. (AFAIK, only the Criterion LD's of 2001 and Dr. Strangelove bear his seal of approval.) He had just finished Eyes Wide Shut when he passed away in 1999.
