Haven't we had the "It's Lucas' vision" versus "Lucas is a senile old man" debate about 40 times over already? There's not going to be any reconciliation between the two camps, let it go. This is not a zero sum game, you're allowed to have both versions. If nothing else, the originals should exist for the sake of marvelling at what ILM managed to accomplish with 1970s level technology.
Still, I'm not at all seeing why they can't go to the trouble of giving the original masters another pass. Yes, 1993 technology isn't as good as 2004 technology - so why give all your fans the finger by refusing to clean up the image any further with 2006 technology? Granted, the difference will probably go unnoticed by most people, but it still reeks of unprofessionalism.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
