I'm annoyed by this thread by the PENamerica CEO comparing the changes to new editions of Dahl's books to book banning happening throughout the U.S.

This is no different from the Dr. Seuss brouhaha. A private party has the copyright. They can change it however they choose, or not publish new editions at all. It bears no relationship to government bans, limitations on what appears in public/school libraries, and so forth.
