Visual descriptions are intended to create equity between people, so avoiding the emotional gatekeeping when possible is appreciated. Uncensored descriptions help your point land in more places.

You don't have the source, you don't know how it was processed, you just have a binary you can download and use. There's nothing open about it.

The deeper question is how many people will notice the difference? Most people are semiotically unconscious. Images just fill a role in their environment. Details are not important to them.
