Thanks for pointing this out! I downloaded it last week after seeing your post, and I don't think I've let a day go by yet without some retro indulgence. I even went as far as putting back the original Elite theme music, which I happened to have on cassette (kids, that's a kind of magnetic media that looks like a car audio adapter) and digitized about a month ago. Makes the experience more complete.

I'm not sure how long I can keep playing... I mean, as great as Elite was in 1985 it's a bit like a bad fetch and carry quest now. But the flashback value is superlative.
