It is so strange. I also collect comic books, and in comics, restoration happens often and items that have disclosed restoration are bought and sold regularly. Comics with writing or marks? No problem. Send a card to psa with a mark only a microscope could detect and you have a deduction.
If this guy wants to restore his card, then so be it. I have seen some cards that were in such wretched condition that I couldn't stand to look at them, but if they were cleaned up a bit, I might be a buyer. I don't want my hobby to be like coins. I want to enjoy it and not be so worried about every little thing. As long as the restoration is noted, go for it.
