I've always thought this, too! Whenever I play the 2002 collection I'm amazed with how balanced and open the sound is. In some cases, the mastering is indeed better than that in the reissues. Only downside is that the edited the live tracks from The Dance (ISO and BL - also wished they just used the original studio version of BL rather than the acoustic Dance version).
