If you re-read the new wording, the ability to put the card back into the graveyard is now after the effects of playing the card to remove it from the game. The difference is that Tea Party Before the Decisive Duel now no longer gains the additional text if it was removed via other means. It will only gain the text in the removed area when you play the spell. So no more Deathscythe shenanigans.
