Yeah, I mean, of course the re-comps that keep it exactly as the original (and not all the SE recomps do) don't really alter experiencing the film and it is partly a matter of principle, although like I said, I greatly enjoy the aesthetic of an optically composited effect but that's just my personal taste.

And the over-all picture quality wouldn't have to be compromised but if it was slightly worse than the SE (which is debatable because the PQ of the SE isn't that great either but in a different way) I'd accept it - but only to a point: it would have to be actually restored. Similarly to Blade Runner - the FC footage was given a more in-depth, expensive and time-consuming restoration (and I mean prior to any alterations being made) than the other versions but the other version are restored to a state of looking great - that's how I want SW restored.
