You noticed.  Does that make you obsessive?

Also, being able to notice that one thing doesn't look exactly like
another thing is a fairly universal human ability.  It's called
observation.  Most functioning people have it.

Also, some episodes looking different from each other is due to there
being different animation directors  They didn't all draw the characters
exactly the same, and apparently that wasn't a huge issue at the time.  It
doesn't really have anything to do with budget.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

You know, life isn't all black and white.  Eva was special to ADV because
it was their first major title, and it was a big deal.  So if you think
they treated it with more "respect" than Funimation, I would argue that it
was out of necessity more than anything else.

Also, you're just a fan.  Ultimately, you don't know anything about the
process involved in localizing Evangelion, so you're in no position to
tell anyone the "truth" of the matter.

Invent time travel, go back in time 13 years, get a job at ADV, work on
the English release of Eva, then time travel forward 10 years, work on the
release of Rebuild, then you can come back and tell us the truth of the
matter.

I for one am tired of your "Rebuild 1.01 is literally the worst DVD ever
made" bullshit.  Your campaign to ReVolutionize the fandom isn't going to
go very far if you keep making these negative insinuations about everyone
with a vested interest in the show.
