Submitting a better version of 1:1 SNES music porting of other porters?

I already ported this for a while, but I doubt to submit it since there are already Masashi27's version.

Compared to his version, my version has some advantages:

1. Less insert size, due to all of $E5 and $ED command spamming is avoided.
2. Better accuracy with both volume and pitch.

I am not really sure if it's worth to submit such an update, plus there are ports made before AddMusicK's age and were so amazing. I also afraid if my action would be considered as disrespect for the original porter, but I just think we could have a better version...
i think you submit it, yes. if a piece of music is of high quality but removed because an even higher quality version is submitted, users would still be able to find the original in the removal log. likewise, someone could comment a link to the old one in your new submission if they really wanted to.
Well, I'm not a music expert, but if 1:1 ports are made to be as accurate as possible, submitting a version which is more accurate than the already hosted should be totally acceptable, even more considering the port is old.

Just for the record, something like that already happened with the Super Mario All-Stars Soundtrack, where LadiesMan217 submitted his updated version and obsoleted MidiGuy's, which was removed, because LadiesMan217's was better (pretty sure this has happened with individual songs as well, but I can only remember this right now).
