Yeah, these are weird terms most Smash players wouldn't know unless you're into frame data.
It seems the intent of the change was to make Duck Hunt's big jab hit before the duck starts pecking easier to land and increase the damage slightly, while changes to KBG and BKB don't mean basically anything besides kind of offsetting the increase of knockback from the damage buff.
Your character is like 0.01% better, congrats
I'm assuming "Gentleman" means your jab combo without the multi-hit duck pecking, as that term is used in Melee to describe Falcon's third jab hit before he starts punching rapidly.
Damage was increased by 1%. This directly increases the knockback, assuming no other variables changed.
KBG = Knockback Growth. You know how a forward smash sends you far at high percents, but a jab doesn't? KBG determines how much knockback scales with damage. It was lowered from 130 to 125, meaning it has less kill potential.
BKB = Base Knockback. Knockback that doesn't scale and will always apply, whether it's 0% or 300%. It was increased from 40 to 50, meaning it will send further at lower percents than it did before.
The hitbox size was increased, making it cover a bigger area.
Shifted up 1 unit means the hitbox covers at a higher elevation, albeit a very small amount.

Dr. Mario is still long overdue for a major buff.

The new combos Robin can do with his down throw are amazing. Down throw -> Arcthunder -> Nosferatu is really good.
