I feel this. As someone who owns a forty-plus year old car that has more than 770,000 miles on it, I care much more about function than appearance. I don't want original - I want better. When something goes wrong, I see what, I see why, and I try to fix it so it's better and stronger than before.
Likewise, I don't strive for authentic and original when fixing up old VAXen, Amigas, or Macs. I want functional, and I want new caps that're better than original.
It's nice to know there's an appreciation for not original, but better.
