The original medium contains information collected at the time, with the technology available at the time. As such, it represents a time capsule that includes much more context than we can possibly realize; especially analog filmstock and audio. "Upscaling" and "autocolorizing" is injecting inferred (and often wrong) context from today using today's technology and context, tainting, corrupting (IMHO), and again, IMHO, ruining what the original artifact represents. In our current technological, digital zeitgeist, everything that seems like higher and better resolution is universally better and must absolutely replace what was there before. But this is just a shifting fad, unrecognizable to the people who were alive then, and probably unrecognizable to people in the future. Preserve, conserve, protect and pass on. Don't corrupt and "better" these things.
