I've never seen a more 'academic' discussion. So people are 'enhancing' videos and photos. Just like we've been doing for decades. Only the process was manual and labor-intensive. And usually NOT performed by historians. As long as we don't destroy the originals, I can't see why there's even a debate. Every medium captures an interpretation of reality, they are not reality itself.
