In theory I agree with you, however (and I'm mainly thinking of low budget horror-fare here) this may be beneficial for certain films which were perhaps shot with cheap low-res cameras, in poorly lit studios or outside at night.

Burial Ground has been brightened for instance and looks all the better for it (in my opinion of course - others may be of the opinion that not being able to see certain things in Burial Ground is a blessing! )

It's not rubbish at all. But it could be better.
