This flat out does not make sense.
Notice here in this part how it specifically describes the Atmos and 5.1 mixes as "new", but doesn't say the same for the stereo mix:

Where is this separate stereo mix? From how it's describing what Frank Arkwright is doing, the mix should be the same as the original mix, unless those "unmastered mixes" are different from the officially-released mixes.Neither the new stereo mix nor the 5.1 mix have anything to do with the old mixes on the SACD. Frank Arkwright at Abbey Road has created a warm, detailed and dynamic hi-res stereo remaster from the original unmastered mixes of the album and the 5.1 mix is brand new, derived from the Atmos Mix.
Notice here in this part how it specifically describes the Atmos and 5.1 mixes as "new", but doesn't say the same for the stereo mix:
There's this weird ambiguity in how it's worded that makes it hard to derive what they actually mean regarding if the stereo mix is new or not.The SDE blu-ray features a brand new Dolby Atmos Mix by David Kosten (David produced Keane's last studio album Cause and Effect, and created the Atmos Mixes for Tubular Bells and No Parlez) as well as a brand new 5.1 mix and a 96/24 stereo mix.
