Well, somebody had to get out a camera and some very similar-looking
robed and unclothed figures and film them, walking a camera past them,
in about the same motion as was done in the "uncensored" version.
Normally it's not easy to superimpose people onto the middle of the
screen without making it look out of place and in the uncensored
version there are gaps where the people conveniently fit.

Not that this is important, or anything.
