On the other hand, I think that experimenting with numerous processing tools and techniques, breaking boundaries and over-cooking astro images brings invaluable experience that is essential in personal growth as an amateur astro imager and it allows for acquiring in-depth understanding of how to skilfully process astro data. I reckon it would be quite a challenge to find an amateur astro imager who have never clipped a histogram or destroyed good data with noise reduction. Besides, everyone is at a different stage in their journey and have different circumstances, so acquiring good data may not always be possible.
Just my two cents.
