I honestly don't understand why people get so upset about these disclaimers, the films haven't been altered they're just warning people who might not have seen them before.
Over on blurage it turned into such a massive deal that the new Blu-ray and 4K of Bill & Ted has a disclaimer before it talking about outdated attitudes. To be honest, any child watching that film who didn't grow up in the homophobic 80s and 90s might be quite surprised. However, the use of 'fag' is still in the film, they didn't change it. Same with The Dam Busters, it feels weird hearing the dog being called over and over again in this day and age, but it was never dubbed over, they just added a little warning about it before the film starts.
Not everyone has the same understanding and knowledge of the context.
