I'm of two minds of it.
1. There's nothing more salt inducing than buying an ecchi tankobon that seems like it will uncensor the HUGE BLACK BARS... and then there's nothing under it. Literally false advertisement. I welcome any attempts t correct that. And btw, the job here is very well done too.
2. In terms of Mangadex, I don't necessarily like editing more than necessary to make the manga readable in another language. It's noted here, but we all know other scan sites will yoink from here and probably not be as careful. In big cases we may have misinformation about what the manga actually has and what's a fan edit.
IDK a solution to this, but I at least wanna throw it out there to consider. "Fan edits" is too vague because the act of translation is a fan edit, as well as adding TL notes that were never here. Clearly you can't translate without some re-drawing either in some cases.
