That's fair. That said, I've found matrix issues to be MUCH more noticeable with very subtle color.
I've seen tape from a TK-26; it was... interesting looking, to say the least.
Even the Astaire and Eisenhower tapes reveal a lot of issues that would probably have gone unnoticed by the average viewer at home.
