the DSD layer does the trick
I just noticed in the announcement from UM Japan that this will be worldwide release. Maybe another variant (with catalog number containing letter K) will appeared soon for the rest of the world. They did it for Hot Rocks and for SHM-CDs from In Mono box in 2022. That one (with K) might be cheaper for EU customers considering elimination of S&H from Japan and VAT/Import taxes. Although, current offer from jpc.de does not look promising in terms of price.

Not much better on [www.Platomania.nl] - € 49.99.
But it's € 29.99 at [Platenzaak.nl] and [www.Bravado.de] .
Yes. This is another 50th Anniversary re-issue. It might be considered as a complementary to that Hot Rocks 1964-1971 [UICY-79767/8]. And also loosely connected to 50th Anniversary re-issues of Big Hits (High Tide And Green Grass) UK [UICY-79022] and Through The Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol.2) UK [UICY-79023] from 2019. But these were Japanese only and are out of print.Quote

is it an improvement over the 2002 SACD release
All recent releases are based on DSD tape transfer. But they were converted and downsampled to regular CDDA 44.1kHz/16bit.Quote

Probably not really, since this 2023 re-release is a normal Audio-CD (PCM 44.1kHz/16bit) while the 2002 SACD is based on the DSD format (2.8MHz/1bit).
But maybe some newer masterings by Bob Ludwig were used?

Currently for EU customers the cheapest option for the edition that will be sold around the globe (excluding Japan) are from FNAC France and amazon France - 27.99€.

Keep in mind that this edition might come without (or with shortened version of) Japanese booklet. Guess, this factor is not important to those who do not 'collect stamps'.
The same version (barcode 0018771215622) should appear for US and Canada too.

Black and white Japanese booklet with a commentary and lyrics in English and Japanese is absent. Apparently, it will be present for Japanese only edition (the one without letter K in catalog number).
Track list is reverted to original. I.e., 12 tracks for CD1 and 13 tracks for CD2. No bonus tracks like on 2002 reissue.
Digital content: Remastered by Bob Ludwig. Based on recent reissues.
All mono tracks originated from 2016 tape transfer/mastering that was used for In Mono box. Here they got a 'cosmetic' lift. Like small changes in loudness to match the compilation.
Stereo tracks are new, not identical to 2002 versions.
CD1
04-It's All Over Now new tape transfer, not identical to 2002. Better separation of bass and trebles between channels.
07-Out of Time new tape transfer, not like 2002 version. It has a lot of hiss. Either they uses here an unprocessed digital file or tape transfer was done from an inferior tape source.
08-Lady Jane new tape transfer and mastering. The track is louder compared to 2002 and differently equalized. Also, it runs a notch faster.
09-Sittin' on a Fence new tape transfer and mastering. Different from 2002 version. For the first time the track in this form appeared in 2019 on Japanese only SHM-CD Through The Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol.2), UK version [UICY-79023].
11-Dandelion new tape transfer and mastering. Different from 2002 version. For the first time the track in this form appeared in 2019 on Japanese only SHM-CD Through The Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol.2), UK version [UICY-79023]. The stereo scene is wider here comparing to 2002 version due to better bass/treble separation between channels.
12-We Love You for the first time the track in this form appeared in 2019 on Japanese only SHM-CD Through The Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol.2), UK version [UICY-79023]. Although, it seems that this version and the one from 2002 originated from the same tape transfer they are different. The track from 2002 has loud ‘click’ by the end of the track (4:16) in the left channel. This sound was removed in 2019. Also, equalization for 2019 (and 2023) track is different.
CD2
01-She's A Rainbow. A kind of copy-paste from stereo version of 50th Anniversary edition of Their Satanic Majesties Request (2017) but without carnival intro. Also, the track was adjusted in terms in loudness. These adjustments were not done uniformly. I.e., parts of the song with vocals were made louder (more compressed) comparing to the others. For the first time the track in this form appeared in 2019 on Japanese only SHM-CD Through The Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol.2), UK version [UICY-79023]. Tape transfer and mastering approaches are different to 2002.
02-2000 Light Years From Home originated from stereo version of 50th Anniversary edition of Their Satanic Majesties Request (2017). Different tape transfer and mastering compared to 2002.
03-Child Of The Moon apparently originated from 2002 tape transfer. Tracks from 2002 and 2023 CDs stay in sync. Although 2023 version is equalized differently with respect to 2002.
04-No Expectations originated from 50th Anniversary edition of Beggars Banquet (2018). Different tape transfer and mastering with respect to 2002.
05-Let It Bleed originated from 50th Anniversary edition of stereo version Let It Bleed (2019). Different tape transfer and mastering with respect to 2002.
06-What To Do new tape transfer and mastering with respect to 2002. Track has wider stereo scene due to better bass/treble separation between channels.
12-I Can't Be Satisfied apparently originated from 2002 tape transfer but is equalized differently.
