Rumor is that the most notorious '97 change, Greedo shooting first, has actually been switched back to its original 1977 form in the 4k SE, giving it a kind of "final cut" status.

I have no faith at all in this rumor. The single person who said this said it would be the case for the previous digital release, and then said "oops I mean it's a later release probably" (paraphrased). They had access to a release that's highly under wraps and had no idea what they were watching? Probably just a fan edit or lie.

 Not to mention that he also had stated before this his 'sources' told him that Fox owned the entirety of A New Hope (not just the perpetual distribution rights) as well as an unwillingness to release the OOT while Lucas was alive, which contradicted at least one article before that in which he stated that Disney would release the OOT.
