Since the film does not run in theaters indefinitely and at the time VHS was a common format, among others.
Given film reciprocity and resolution related to period produced film stock and processing techniques, VHS and other reduced resolution formats from the same period, look better, to me! than rescans(4k, which super35 barely supports) and up-resing. Again IMHO because I guess people take this otherwise.
I own equipment capable of view films and plates from any period of film production. I have processed and looked at found "film" from before 1900. I use quotes because it wasnt the same as today and many varieties of techniques existed to capture images or make moving images.

What you're describing is just nostalgia, nothing more. That's fine, no need to rationalize it.
Why stop at VHS? Why not copy it a few times back and forth between tapes?
