Because as I said before, I'm an FX buff. I'm not saying don't release the original cuts, they need to be released for those who grew up with them and for preservation, as well. I was merely expressing what my ideal OT would be. Good FX work helps keep me "in" the film. When CG isn't obvious, I enjoy it. And the only CG from the SE that worked was the outer-space/vehicle footage, really. Ideally, I like model-work and digital compositing to make things as realistic looking and clean as possible. Matte lines have always irked me and drawn my eyes right to them, in effect. Having an eye for FX can really suck. I was very very pleased at the fine matte line removal from the Rancor scene in ROTJ, but I was appauled at the shoddy Lightsaber "restoration."

Besides, FX cleanup doesn't mean screw it up by adding new elements. I'm not talking about adding anything. Removing matte lines and making the snowspeeder cockpits solid doesn't hurt the film at all.
