To retrobright or not to retrobright?

I have a decision to make:

I have this early 1984 Mac 128K that is slightly yellow and I'm not sure if I should retrobright it to match it with the keyboard. What do you think?

The keyboard is retrobrighted (it was severely yellowed) But the Mac is actually very little yellowing. I'm on the fence here, and I would appreciate expert/enthusiast input on this decision, since it is not reversible.

Thank you all.

Unless the aesthetics really bother you and you can't enjoy using it and looking at it, I would recommend not doing it. You can always change your mind later.
