I agreed with everything until it got to, "The Golovanov’s version is hardly Tchaikovsky’s symphony but rather Golovanov’s own re-composition…"

Yet not a note was changed! (Was it?...)

Therefore what Golovanov did was shuck decades of sentamentalism to give us the basic Thcaikovsky! If I recall correctly, the 1936 Furtwaengler also is unsentimental, although less, ah, wayward.
