"The higher-ups" are screening engravement messages? Call me naive but that sounds like nonsense. At least, it SHOULD be nonsense.

If true they must be terrified of upsetting the CCP.

My guess is the engraving happens in China, so not so surprising that the CCP keeps a tight grip on the wording lest its citizens see it.
