:I don’t understand how it can be any harder than having the 1985 version be invalid and make the 2022 re-cut valid. The original with Savile was entirely removed from their releases. For years basically wanted to remove it from existence. They wanted you to forget about it because they wanted you to forget Savile had ever been involved with the show. Only they found it a pity that the story itself had to go, most likely because they found the story itself decent enough, plus it would mean a piece of the actors' work would be lost. Which is why we now have the 2022 re-cut with Sontaran fleets, entirely removing Savile from the story. And given that this one even has a continuity with another story, whereas the original did not, I think it is entirely proper to say that the 2022 re-cut is the valid one while the original remains invalid. Also, while fourth wall breaking is not grounds for invalidity, the fact that there is a version without it gives an entirely sound reasoning to make the fourth wall breaking version invalid. I disagree with the merge, if not for anything else, then at least for Epsilon's original reasoning that while 7 seconds from a full story of about an hour is not a lot (and hence we would not split articles over that) it '''''IS''''' a lot for a mini-sode (which, as the moniker suggests, doesn’t go on for very long).

: I definitely think they should be merged and the original cut validated through Rule 4 by Proxy - at time of release, the short story should logically validate the original version, even if we now have one that'd pass rule 4 anyway.
