To say the DE has accurate colors isn't exactly true as it is missing a range of nuances and colors that are present in other editions and are present on the 35mm prints.

It was not selectively. I picked apart both as I have both discs and it is indeed a blanket green tint on the Criterion disc. My comparisons are gone from SSC, but you can look at these again if you'd like:

It's more than evident in every single capture. Also, don't forget that the DE disc has the OAR.
