Isn't the disillusionment of the main scientist related to the violent abuse of the CCP (and he loss of faith in humanity) core to the reasoning of why she reached out to the aliens, despite their warning? How do they restructure something so core to the plot?

Yeah, I mentioned 三体 in a parent comment. It's a great counterpoint to the "high fructose" Netflix version. And interesting to see the American character portrayed by an American actor...dubbed by a Chinese voice actor. (Just be prepared to fast-forward the musical interludes.)
