...use her Goten voice for Goku here? Kid Goku sounded different or has it been so long she can't do that anymore?

I don't have a good answer. But there should be a voice-director behind the scenes telling her what to do, as it goes with most animation, so it might not have been her decision in the first place.

Why? Aren't Kid Goku and Goten have a same voice? If they aren't then they probably forgotten about it or they just let it be.

Even if it's just a change that occurred through time, instead of a conscious one. It's weird. Maybe she just forgot or her voice evolved from that voice to the Goten voice she can do now. I don't know, but weird.

She actually requested Gohan and Goten don't appear that much in the Arale filler so I guess she's getting a little too old to distinguish from her kid Goku and Goten voices :idk

Do you have a link?

Gohan is an adult though. Their voices would sound different just from their different attitude/personalities, not to mention her ability to distinguish the voices all on their own even without that.

That was sad. I hope she can voice Goku for many 100 more episodes.

I doubt she completely forgot how to voice Kid Goku, since she voiced him recently in the DB Fusions and Xenoverse games (though it was GT Galu for the latter). Maybe she wasn't given proper voice direction for the scene.

Yo can I see the DB-Fusions thing?

There's a few clips of the game of Youtube, though it's difficult to pinpoint clear dialogue pieces of Kid Goku. However, given the game's story mode has him interacting with Goten, it'd be common sense for Nozawa to distinguish between the two during the dialogue.
