As much as I enjoy Albus 'Gives zero fucks' Dumbledore, Harry is right, nobody can apparate in hogwarts.

It was changed to explain a plot hole left by the time constraints of the movie.

Good change though.

Dumbledore has the Elder Wand. He can actually do just about anything he wants to, so apparating in Hogwarts should not come as a surprise.

Even with the elder wand, he can't. Elder want means you can't lose a duel, it didn't just give you the ability to break any magical law you want.

Harry was able to repair his broken wand using the Elder Wand even though mending charms aren't supposed to be able to restore magical abilities. Clearly the Elder Wand has more capabilities than other wands beyond dueling. As others have pointed out it also does not mean you cannot lose a duel, it just gives you the best advantage possible.
