I guess his name alone should be a tell-tale that I'm being ironic. He was the first that went crazy with postprocessing in the first place. All his work is heavily edited. And yes, he would be praised today, and he is praised today exactly for what he did. DO NOT look at his work on screen. Don't judge it on screen as well. His photos aren't edited for screen, if they were you'd get whites where his greys are now. His editing his prints for those fantastic silver tones that you see on his canvases. And they are majestic when you see them! Take moonrise for example, seeing it live, moon and the tombstones are fantastically silver, drawing your eyes to them, accenting the blacks of the dark sky perfectly. It's a masterpiece. Screenshot, meh...
