posting a video I watched which shows plainly how the NWT changed the words in Luke 22:29 to support the idea that the new covenant was for members of 144000. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf13PLOTjog

My hearing is not good enough to follow the speech, but it was always clear that the New Covenant contrasts with the old covenant, the Law given to Moses.
The New Covenant is for forgiveness of sins. . In the unlikely case that wt would once be right, and the Other Sheep would never die (starting in 2075), then they would need the New Covenant more than the anointed, who will have to die to go to heaven, paying the price themselves.
The Priests and Kings had their additional covenants, but they too had to be in the Old, or New Covenants first to get that additional calling.
Does it matter? yes, because the memorial emblems represent the new covenant, freedom from sin for all, not just the 144 000. All should , must partake, it is even allowed for the partakers, the wt anointed.

waton...a lot of text in that video ...she shows the interlinear word for word from Bible Hub to show that the NWT translated 2 different Greek words covenant. One in Luke 22:20 and the other ( Luke22:29 which shouldn't be translated covenant. Then she uses an example in Hebrews. So even if you can't hear it, you can follow the text for the most part. There is other info as well.
