It wasn't changed. They have a limited amount of space in the casebook and probably decided that something else they wanted to put in was more useful to include. It doesn't mean the interpretation is no longer valid when something disappears from the casebook. In fact, I'd suggest that all casebook plays do remain valid even if they disappear unless there is a new ruling to the contrary.
