I think there is just room for multiple versions - I like the clunky garbage mattes and other faults sometimes, it lets you kinda sneak a look at how it all works, but...
If I want to really lose myself, and get carried off into a galaxy far far away, I would rather watch a very clean transfer that was glitch free, in surround in my dark cinema with my 4 metre wide screen. For me some of the changes pull me out of that universe though (like th jabba scene and the anakin ghost).
So that's why I am trying to make an archival version, and an ultra high quality 'Inoffensive De-Specialed Edition' i.e. Glitches fixed, fat sound and the best picture quality possible that I can enjoy on the big screen. This means leaving in things that don't bug me enough to spoil the movie, and taking out those that do.
Unfortunately even playing from the original laserdisc at that screen size the image quality is too poor.
