Newer kits are simply better engineered than older kits. That's always the case. HGUC models try to be as accurate as possible to the original source material while incorporating new model kit technologies that enhance ease of building or posability. The MG line I've found has had a recent habit of making designs with the sole purpose of showcasing new technology regardless of whether or not it's accurate to the source material.
All of the SEED MG kits for example do not look anything at all like Okawara's lineart, yet are much better engineered than the standard grades.
