It also strikes me as very weird that you keep on misreading my posts and just drift from what I said and explained several times.
That is to say : editing can easily fix offkey parts.
I'm just basing my thought on every unedited live broadcasts I saw and compared them straight to their final release. That is my point and nothing else.
I've never debated the fact that she goes offkey a lot or sounds horrible most of the time here.

If she has less dates to take audio from, it's harder to get good takes. She could just record the song on studio and use that to fix a really bad vocal aswell, but it will depend on how far she is willing to go for a less flawed result on the recorded release.
You may be right but to be honest I think it would be much more work having to pick up audio parts of other shows and mixing them together or rerecord, and trying to match the video (this part in itself is quite tricky)... I believe audio editing is way more "easier" and way more efficient than that. Especially as time goes on.
I think I could also easily tell that the corrected audio parts I compared back then were also pretty much the same as the original offkey ones. Not like they took it from another date or else. You could hear the same fluctuations, the same tone, accents, breaths or voice quality. Like even if it's the same song performed by the same artist in the same setup, some things are constantly changing and unique.
