I've watched the clips and the White Swan duet isn't included. She does have to reach for Yevgeny Invanchenko's hand in one of the lifts so maybe she's dealing with some of her old time jitters.
She broke her rib recently, it seemed that he pushed her up into lift at that spot. Overall I'd say she reaches out the audience more now, as there are more spontaneous nuances to the dancing. And very enjoyable, imo.

That's nice to hear, Buddy -- judging from a few clips, it was a performance well done. Though I find Louvet a bit short for Skorik. Ballerinas grow a lot throughout their careers; at the middle of their careers they won't be as green as they once were.
I also hope that Iliushkina will dance Odette/Odile again; maybe even Giselle. She is the truest delight of the young generation in recent years.
Stay safe and healthy!
