I don't like that wording. Its almost as bad as when people say something is "made for a modern audience."

All I think is what systems have you removed and what have you changed about a game that was already very good? Best case is the changes are good and it doesn't really effect the game too much, but worst case is they literally kill the game and ruin its legacy. A lot of risk for not a lot of gain.
