Even more changes to the digital versions (2015) of the OT?

Since the figure sets got leaked, it seems that Star Wars will be available on digital platforms next year.  Do you think there will be even more changes to the movies?  What change will join Greedo shooting, Hayden Force Ghost and Noooo! in the hall of shame?

I personally fear for things like this

ANH

More rocks added in front of Luke when he spies the bantha in the canyon

The ronto that walks in front of the landspeeder poos

Jabba now farts when Han steps on him

Naboo Fighters and ARC-170s added to Battle of Yavin

When Vader’s ship spins away he screams “Noooooo!”

ESB

CGI Speeder Bikes added to Hoth Battle

Yoda replaced by CGI to be much more mobile.

Lando mentions “trade negotiations” multiple times.

Even more Vader arriving on his Star Destroyer cutaways

ROTJ

R2-D2 now has an air fight with a Genosian on the sail barge

Yoda replaced by CGI and dialog altered to mention midicholorians, Darth Sidious, the Chosen One Prophecy and trade negotiations.

Mas Amedda added to Palpatine’s advisors

“Obi-Wan once thought as you do.” replaced with “Padme, your mother, once thought as you do now.”

Nein Numb replaced with Jar Jar Binks as Lando’s co-pilot.

<span style=“font-size: 11pt; line-height: 1.4;”>Hayden is made Vader’s unmasked face and he whines about how he was held back and how he hates sand.</span>

Yoda’s Force Ghost now is CGI and dances along to the music.

It seems like people are really embracing the new characters. In fact, the big question people ask me now about Star Wars is, “Are Finn and Poe gay lovers?” And really how the f*ck would I know? My second husband left me for a man, so my gaydar isn’t exactly what you’d call Death Star level quality. ----Carrie Fisher

I don't think Disney will waste money on changing anything else. I bet they'll just be the 2011 versions for the digital release. I do think that both the SE and the original versions will be released on disc before Ep. VII though

Preferably doing the SE from scratch, so that everything is 4k instead of upscaled 2k.
