If that's the case I think it would be a real shame because you now have the processing power to create a high quality 1080p encode of The Empire Strikes Back Despecialized Edition.

It wouldn't be because in that case, the gap between GOUT and blu-ray material would be much more visible. This has been discussed more than a dozen times.

I don't see why the image quality of the footage taken from the blu-ray should be reduced just so the difference in quality between the GOUT footage and the blu-ray footage is less. That doesn't make much sense to me, that the blu-ray footage image quality should suffer for the sake of the GOUT footage, so the overall image quality of the encode is less.

The GOUT uprezes fine to 1080p, I should know, I reinstated Lapti Nek and the original Jedi Ghosts scene with Sebastian Shaw from the GOUT to my Return of the Jedi Semi-Specialised Edition, they look fine in 1080p alongside the blu-ray footage, I've never received any complaints. Harmy should be able do the same with his Despecialised releases now that he has the processing power.
