I just don't like that soft look that the other image had. It looked ok when I processed it but now I have sorted the collimation and got sharper data this is what I am looking to achieve but obviously a lot smoother. As you can appreciate sharp data makes for better images in the long run.
You did a great job on the data combine, slightly blurred but looks very smooth now. I defer to your skills.

If you blink the combo image with your latest sharpened version you will see that all the detail is indeed still all there but without the noise, I think you'll find it is just a first impressions illusion that it is blurred

I have been caught by this illusion in the past myself

But, Yes, get more data that is always the best
