When you have an OLED screen then 4:3 aspect ratio is fine because the black bars aren't backlit, so it's not a problem.

Except when you do it too much, the 4:3 area will remain brighter due to the higher usage.

I mean I personally would prefer a 4:3 restoration anyway, because composition and its relation to mise en scene are important to me, but c'est la vie.
