No, the report is not correct. Only the 2-hour pilot was
filmed in normal aspect ratio; from day one, the series has been shot
in widescreen format, cropped for current ratios.

We'd pretty much have to re-render the CGI for important shots,
while more mundane stuff where there's nothing in the upper and lower
parts of the frame could be safely cropped and lose nothing.
