Generally making these kind of minor changes to suit a values agenda (like presenting an Eliza who cannot reference tolerance for being mistreatment) often have unexpected consequences.

The ending may seem like such a change, but at least it follows Shaw's stated intention. But this kind of cut would probably weaken the character and story in ways beyond the obvious.
