    One of the core complaints here seems to be based on a misreading that makes the English version sound much worse than it actually is.

    The Exarch doesn't say anything about Vauthry's size, changed or not. He thanks him for his hospitality and calls him as generous as ever.

    (Vauthry responds by calling the Exarch "disingenuous" - insincere or having secret motives. Which is accurate, but hardly the thing you call a guest...)

    Most likely it was changed because any sort of remark on his size would come off as rude and undiplomatic in English, though I have no idea about the intended impression in the Japanese version.

    It's cutscene #2 of 'An Unwanted Proposal' if anyone wants to go rewatch it.
