The fact is that the original elements are now damaged enough that nobody could say definitively that any frame could be "restored" to its exact original appearance. How would we ever know what that is? That's the beauty and drawback of photochemical processes.  And as such, people can cherry pick what should or shouldn't be as they see fit.  I try to be as sensitive and respectful as I can, as a lifelong fan, student of the aesthetic, and professional restoration artist.
