I’m not much of a royal watcher but I do find this story fascinating. I suspect the reality is going to end up being boring: people at the palace (or William himself given he apparently took the photo) are a combination of arrogant and insecure enough that they took a perfectly good but not quite perfect photo and felt like they had to edit it until it looked exactly like they decided it should. But we’ll see.

Probably, but doing that for a high profile person that is the subject of wild speculation because of a recent absence isn't smart.
Arrogance overpowering sensible decision making feels like a royal trait, at least.
