They're changing the shot to remove the twin towers on the new york skyline. It's not as egregious as it could be, but it's still unnecessary.
I mean it's not specifically current year bullshit, but the weird casual memory holing of the twin towers ever existing in pop culture is still very much bullshit. There's nothing respectful about Stalin-style editting them out of old pictures like Marty McFly kissed the architect's mom. It's just creepy social engineering to stop people reacting naturally to innocuous reminders of what happened.
At this point it's either adults who are (usually) over it, or kids who weren't alive to grasp the significance. Pretending they never existed is the worst way to handle it.
