I'm not sure that I really understand what you mean. Certainly, Philstar is judgjng the movie from a modern point of view. But that's a totally valid frame of judgment, and a valid way of understanding the movie's message. The historical explanation of the roots of the movie in the 1950s, and the older fairy tales that it's drawing on, are extremely important for understanding why the movie is the way it is, but it doesn't follow that you have to like or approve of the message, or show it to children. You can understand why Cinderella isn't more proactive, and still want her to be. The historical stuff - it's an explanation, but it's not a justification, necessarily.

Never mind that plenty of old fairy tales and films from the 50s portray women behaving far more proactively than Cinderella did. Old timey sexism explains a lot of problems but it isn't the perfect excuse some people use it as.
