I can't believe they changed this. I too have the original - hung on to it for years ... until coffee got splashed on it. Can online to re-find it and print it out. What's the deal??? So not funny.
Different words would have different advantages, but consider that the present dialog captures how PHB has perverted the role of a leader. Which is to say, he chooses to identify his leadership as such specifically when he is being oppressive. It's a very good example of the ambiguous middle ground between cruelty and cluelessness that PHB represents.
