i found this out last night and im not sure if it changes anything but the new reading seems more ambiguous,so my guess is the saving to suitors clause is gaining in popularity,and they are trying to hide it.so i thought for anyone new here like myself i would point that out.
i also plan to start reading this tonight i found it in my ancillary reading from the clause mabey others can find value and signifigance in it,since its new.

NOTES
"The “saving to suitors” clause in sections 41(3) and 371(3) of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., was changed by substituting the words “any other remedy to which he is otherwise entitled” for the words “the right of a common law remedy where the common law is competent to give it.” The substituted language is simpler and more expressive of the original intent of Congress and is in conformity with Rule 2 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure abolishing the distinction between law and equity.
