So in theory no resto should be needed, but perhaps the restoration effect of the blanker is not what it should be?

CTC-4 and later had only partial DC restore in the luma. All chassis had DC restore in the chroma, which is necesary to prevent the color tracking drifting in the opposite direction of the most prominent color in a scene.
In the CT-100, DC restore was done on the individual R,G, and B drives, so both luminance and chroma were DC restored.
