I think it's extremly disrespectful to say all Britney is capable of is to be a sexualized object. Believe it or not, but I'm listening to her because of her music. I absolutely adore her voice and furthermore I alsways loved that she makes songs lyrical wise like Stronger, What You See Is What you Get, Lonely, My Prerogative, Piece of Me etc.
Britney stated time and time again that she actually never wanted to make sexy dance music but wanted to become a true artist but wasn't allowed to. She only got her record deal under those conditions. She also stated a few times now that she doesn't enjoy making those overly sexualised videos anymore and wasn't really ok with Work Bitch either. I guess this time she simply was able to get her way last minute.
And lets be real: the original video also wouldn't be anything creative or worth watching more than once and nothing we wouldn't have seen before. I honestly don't care which version we got and if Brit feels more comfortable with this one, great. The only Britney video that comes to my mind which was really cool from a creative point of view would be Hold It Against Me.
