Yeah, hate to say it, but it doesn't stick. Lucas and Spielberg both wanted to make their films more kiddie-proof, which is ironic, since ROTS may be heading into PG-13 territory. FBI agents holding guns in ET wasn't going to affect the rating, and shorter burns in the detention center wasn't going to do it either.

Lucas simply wanted these changes. No one was going to change the rating.
