Oh, I think both were entirely CGI, done from scratch by separate people sharing only certain resources.
First, they're synced very, very closely but not perfectly. Why even attempt to replicate a live performance so closely just to get an additional angle?
The easiest anomaly to overlook is the difference in color tone between the two versions. Two cameras might differ in color-balance with a very lame cameraman, but not two copies of the footage. Also note you can see they're identical in the two angles of the newer version.
So as I would argue, two different groups at two different times used CGI to produce the clips. They appear to have used two different CGI software packages, though. In one, the software and settings yielded Biden's suit as dark blue while in the other, almost gray.
Even in a big feature film with hours of CGI, I'm sure they have to be careful but such problems would rarely occur because one team would be using one package for, say, all the spaceship exteriors and laser blasts. It would always match itself perfectly and automatically.
I'm sure the 2nd team was so proud when they finished their work they never compared it to the earlier stream for continuity and quality. Too busy smirking with duper's delight.
