Differences in the DBGT Funimation dub between the original single DVDs and the green bricks?

I knew og dragon ball and z both had a handful of line and voice filter differences between their original DVD releases and their [color] brick relases. But does anyone know if gt had any of those too for it's original DVD run vs the Greek bricks release?

Did the Blue Bricks actually have any differences between the saga set release?

I know the Dragon Ball wikia claims Man-Wolf had a voice filter removed but uh no he definitely still has it.

I thought it was just Z that had extensive differences

There are line differences and voice filters changed between the sags sets and blue bricks. Such as the robot in the red ribbon cave in the general blue saga having a voice filter. I don't remember all the others off the top of my head though.

I didn't know this stuff. Aside from the original airing of the series in the US, I only really watched the dub once through the DB singles, orange bricks, and GT singles. Despite owning multiple releases, I wouldn't know jack all about the differences that aren't blatant such as video quality, lack of next episode previews (for GT), and updated opening/closings (again for GT).

I don't see why they'd change the audio at all for Dragon Ball or GT, to be honest. It kinda made sense for the orange bricks (and onward) because they redubbed... some... stuff. So, naturally, I would expect a filter to be removed if they are mucking around with the audio anyway. But why the heck would they touch the Dragon Ball or GT audio? I mean, maybe... maybe... maybe it has something to do with the separation of vocals and music to include the original BGM? Seems like a really far reach.
