- that evening I decide to review and clarify those changed projects, using the Changed Date grouping.

In the top Changed Today grouping, I'll not only see the projects that were changed during my evening review, but also every project that I reviewed earlier in the day! This is because when you mark a project as reviewed, it nudges the changed date.
That's a good point, but can't you address it by careful selection of your sort option when doing the grouping? Group by changed date to get the projects changed today, and sort by changed date to pull the ones that you've touched most recently (by processing your Inbox) to the top.

Also, isn't step 2 of the weekly review "get Inbox to zero"? :)

That looks like a useful script, thanks for sharing it!
