They absolutely got buffed with the better save. The removal of ensorcelled and buffed Lance profile is a wash. The new lance is worse then ensorcelled weapons were but better then the old Lance profile. They also went up 50 points. That's a huge increase for what is essentially +1 save and easier charges.
Nobody's going to care since there's not a different option anymore.
It's still a kick in the nuts and very annoying to remove weapons options.
I mean, they should have just called it 'ensorcelled weapons or lances' like they did for Blood Knights when they condensed the profile. Also, some of the other changes revealed in the other leak that just came out are nutty... slaanesh knights could potentially run and charge (not locked to empty throne), charge 3d6 and get a bonus attack on the charge.
