Maybe the original gives more cropping / aspect options? Or instead, a bit of cloning replacement against the edge-of-frame distractions? Everyone has their own approach, style and vision. For me, when I open the attachment and click to the 1:1 details, thus removing the bottom edge, I see an image I prefer. There's a scratch (?) down the left side too, like a scan?
Edit: I see the update now. A bit too close, I think, with the wing tips clipped. But, yes, something like this re-crop.
I think that you are right. The bottom doesn't add anything to the picture after all. It is all about the pelican.
