I have no idea and already given up to over-interpret anything from such blurry images.

A red oval around a blurred beige rectangle.

Many modules sighted on previous photos, on the side of the dry dock, are no more there, though the blurring might hide them but I am inclined to think they are now joined with the main hull.

I think maybe the island started to take shape?

Maybe, but the red oval around a blurry beige rectangle is on the port side. The island is expected to emerge on the starboard side.

Note that out of the 4 modules for the stern we saw in previous pictures, only one remains on the dock side. That piece should be the final module for the rear end of the flight deck.
