I don't really have issue with the roald dahl edits. They're books for children, not for adults to appreciate the art and historicity of the story telling. Kids books are usually about morals and entertainment, and they model their language and behavior after books to an extent that adults don't. So, edit away I say. But also make sure the originals are available somewhere(which they are, since they sold into the millions)

How kids talk to each other is way way worse now than when I grew up in my experience. Calling each other 'whores' or different combinations of 'fuck'. Having a state-ish approved nomenclature that is way off their everyday one has to be phsycois inducing.
