It’s marketing man. Next you will be complaining that the burgers look a lot better on the billboards compared to when you unwrap them, or that the shirt looked a lot better on the mannequin than when you put it on, or that car ads always show their car speeding on an open road instead of stuck in a traffic jam during the morning commute.

Ignore the marketingese and don’t let it bother you so much. The important thing is that they listened to their customers and created a better product as a result.

I dunno, we expect people to be honest in every other aspect of their life. Why shouldn't marketers be honest too?

We do not expect people to be honest in other aspects of their life. Just look at the cosmetics industry. Politicians with their campaign promises. Management with their corporate right-sizing and synergies. Kids and Santa Claus. (haha!)

Anyway, I consider fake reviews to be dishonest .. I consider this to be more like "putting a positive spin on it".
