Counterpoint: it doesn’t matter as long as the movie is good. Literally who cares, take whatever parts of whatever old story, name whoever whatever, if the movie is good then great, if it isn’t, it wouldn’t be because it’s not a faithful adaptation of half-remembered hudnreds years old story that was in turn half-remembered adaptation of a folk horror
It’s a regional story. If it was an African, or Asian, or Latin American, or American Indian story, would it be okay to make the characters European so long as the story is good?
If your answer is “Yes”, then okay at least you’re consistent, but a lot of people would disagree.
If your answer is “No, because white people are disproportionately represented in media”, that’s exactly why we should prefer making media based on other cultures and regions, rather than endlessly remaking the same European stories so Disney can protect their IP.
But many people of Asian and African descend grow up with fairytales of European origin. Some of them don’t have any relationship to the local stories from the distant places their families once came from. It’s not ok that they can adopt European culture but are not allowed to participate.

While you’re not wrong here, the race-swapping is still weird.
