In my humble opinion, it all boils down to the individual choice of the collector. I live on a fixed income, so I cannot purchase the beautifully preserved dags that are display quality and cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars. I have to try to find the best quality I can for the low price-range that I am confined to and that means images that are tarnished but have the potential to be really nice images if they are cleaned.
I like to enjoy my images, and to me that means being able to see them without the distractions of tarnish, etc. This doesn't mean that I clean all my dags, just the ones that I feel would be improved by cleaning. I'll post a few Before and After examples and let you be the judge.
