I have thought long and hard about it and I can't find a reason why I would agree that this was a good idea.

I guess you could do this to any set. Gold stamp it 1/1 and it instantly becomes that. 75 Brett, Yount, etc.
But leave the pre war cards (especially the T206) alone.

But has it been ruined or just repacked? This board is always talking about the future of the hobby and the future of vintage. Paddy Livingstone can do a lot more for that future as a stamped 1/1 inside a modern product than it can as a low-grade common that means nothing to a lot of people.

If you're interested in the future, this is how the future learns these cards even exist.
