What kind of Mandela effect shit is this?

I’ve spent more time than I would like to admit trying to fact check this. I swear when the special editions came out one of the behind the scenes was about restoring the scene with the fur coat Jabba that had appeared in the first pre-title-crawl version. Now all I can find are references to it being rereleased at least 4 times before the special edition but nothing about scene edits.

As I understand it the original jabba scene where never in any release. It was recorded but scraped during editing.
