Sorry, but it's still a matter of opinion and a manner of taste. But thank you for playing.

And funny that you bring up "Intent". So it's perfectly fine if the DNR the hell out of something if the Director intended it to look pristine, but got stuck with crappy film stock due to the film's budget. Or just getting stuck with it, because that's what was delivered. Righty-o. We should keep that in mind also now.

In the end it's still a matter of taste and manner of opinion. Just like everything in regard to art.
