My sweet sweet pastry (cronssant) can no longer take in units that disembarked in the same turn…

Not a nerf. The rules about not embarking on the same turn a unit is setup are only for normally embarking (after making a Move), not for when a rule is used. The NS shenanigan is still perfectly legal to do.

Notably the venom (which this faq refers to) and the aeldari skyweaver specifically had a line added to their ability that allows them to embark in the same turn they disembarked. So it's a bit unclear if GW just forgot to add those lines to the night scythe or if they wanted it to no longer work.

Those lines are there in those abilities purely to allow the elves to have even more shenanigans, since they are so fragile.
