Is there an issue with the removal of an actual scientific inaccuracy from a science program?
This:
> "See, there are only two possibilities: XX, a girl, or XY, a boy. The chance of becoming either a boy or a girl is always 1 in 2, a 50-50 chance either way. It’s like flipping a coin: X you’re a girl, Y you’re a boy.”
is out by a few percent .. numbers wise it's more inaccurate than claiming there's no gold in the earths crust. ( see [1] )

I imagine Nye himself authorised the change to his own work as I assume he later corrected himself (as appears to be implied in your link).
