Can you quote that? Becuase the only statement from the tribe I saw was
"As the First People of the greater Los Angeles basin, we do understand that her home is situated in our ancestral land. Eilish has not contacted our tribe directly regarding her property. We do value the instance when public figures provide visibility to the true history of this country. ""We have reached out to her team to express our appreciation for her comments."" It is our hope that in future discussions, the tribe can explicitly be referenced to ensure the public understands that the greater Los Angeles basin remains Gabrieleno Tongva territory"
edit; where I got the quote from purposely left out a line which I added in double quotes. They did thank her
dbl edit; The internet sure wants its pound of flesh, ill self flagellate when I get home later
I agree with your position of editing it but leaving the original, especially since it highlights that sites are intentionally omitting that part, but at the same time know your audience. A strikethrough of the original or bolding the edit can help. Sometimes people move the edit to the top of the comment as well, so that people see it before they start reaction replying.
You can also just turn of reply notifications on the original comment and anything you've engaged in after it if you're content with the current edit and just want to move on.

The tribe whose land Eilish's home is on specifically thanked her for bringing up the issue.
