15-18 minutes of re-touching, at approximately 20K is one thing. But 65-85 minutes of re-touching, and you're looking at quite a large sum.
At any rate, I'm not saying it wasn't done at all. I just don't concur with the degree to which it's assumed it was done.

Inflated? Try ridiculous, Le Stew.
If you can name a filmed concert or movie in the past ten years that has had "millions" of "extensive" retouching done to the singer or actor in order to freshen them up, I'll eat my socks. And even at an hour and a half, you still won't be paying millions.
No one said that she had an extreme amount of retouching done.
I know that I said there was a lot of reotuching done on The Dance, but I certainly don't believe she had the exorbitant amount done that you seem to think I do.
The majority of it was soft lenses.
