Although that interview does prove that not everyone's memory is correct... the 84/85 date was nonsense.

From talking/interviewing developers in the past, you realise how unreliable people's memories are and that primary sources (from back in the day) can actually be more reliable than the people themselves. I've had devs completely forget whole versions of games or events that happened until I've shown them things.

But, in the case re. Zenobi, there doesn't seem to be a particular need to change the original "publisher" name as that would be against the wishes of the person involved.
