Myself, and the changes found within

We are, of course, all changing. For myself, it seems I was only yesterday clambering through a crack in the earth below the bandstand of Victoria Park, nothing but rags on my back and a guttering torch in hand, and now I am the darling of all the Duchess's finest soirées. If I do say so myself.
Fallen London, too, and the Bazaar itself, seem to change near every day and most often for the better. Yet a recent phenomonon cause me some distress. I hesitate to mention it, such a trifle really, but the tendency for items of importance in my possession be wreathed in a blue halo means they are now less easily noticable than before, when I thought I detected a gleam of gold about those same trinkets, keys and such.
((TL;DR -- The hot blue border for use-able inventory items is harder for me to see, and IMO out of sorts with the general colour scheme, than the previous gold/yellow.))

Some of these cards now say that you have a major gain against a minor loss, while others still say that you have a major loss against a minor gain. As such, I suspect that these changes may only apply to some of the cards, not all of them. A shame.
No, it's all of them. It's possible some of the guidance text is outdated - I'll check.

They apparently offer a better exchange rate on stats for the training ones, and the conflict cards now give you items.
Not quite - the changes are just to the cards that set one Connected faction against another. There are two changes:
- The old branches, where you choose to favour one faction over the other, now provide a profitable Connected exchange. You'll gain more Connected with the faction you favour than you lose from the one you don't. If you're after a particular sort of Connected, these cards are now a good way to get it without the previous steep cost.
- Some of the cards also have a new branch that pays out in rare items (like Romantic Notions, Tales of Terror!! and Maniac's Prayers) - you'll always get some even on a failure, and will get more on a success.

I do like the fact you can arrange a compromise for some of them.
Feels more realistic that you're character could use their connections to act as a mediator.
