Has it been moved downwards? I'm not entirely sure, but I'll attach a photo below.



(Sorry for the double post)
Instead of being flat across, there is a shadow cast into it that makes it look like it has some depth while having softer edges. It doesn't look to me like it has actually changed shape that much, as far as the actual model goes--it's no wider than it was nor does it look like it has moved down any. But the shadows giving it depth have changed how the shape is perceived. The dark shadows on the underside of the upper lip in the first picture make them look thinner than they are, though it looks to me like the curve has been actually straightened out. That's the biggest difference as far as the actual model changing there, the curve being straighter.
