The aspect ratio on the 4K is listed as being 1.37 but the BD is listed as 1.33, which is what's giving me pause since that is the same AR as the previous BD release. It also looks like BFI/FiM created their own DV/HDR grade. Curious to know if there's a very noticeable difference between it and the SDR-only master or if it's a not so big upgrade like Seven Samurai.
The email they sent indicates both with separate UPC details and all of that. The 1.33:1 ratio could be a mistake on the site.

They've also added an extra ("Program on the film’s 4K restoration") to the blu-ray disc. So it must have been newly produced (and using the new restoration)!
