I doubt that any alteration is irreversible. If a round corner can be built up, one that's been cut off can be too. It might be difficult, but doable.
It's really all about the disclosure, an item is what it is.
I also think that altered cards are collectable as long as the alteration is known. I have a few, ranging from stuff done by kids fooling around to fraudulent trimming. I'm not sure if I have any that are recolored, but it's likely I have a 71T that someone took a marker to.
