Ever so slightly degraded perhaps in some cases but "blurry" is overstating it. And worth the trivial cost if such dumb-as-bricks techniques take hold. One could also submit each image to an image-to-image model with a blank prompt and the right settings to essentially ask for almost a copy, and come out with washed images. Could even do a sharpening (or upscale and sharpening for that matter) at the same time. It has a small (tiny really) GPU cost per image but it's a one-time cost.
