I see your point, though in practical application, the social poison that has been Instagram-style one-upmanship is only going to accelerate with this, simultaneously pressuring people to make their vacations "enhanced" to keep up and also dilute the actual lived experiences that were ostensibly being shared.

Photography tricks have been used for generations to do cool stuff like "movie magic," but they've also been used to promote bullshit conspiracy theories, defame people, and the like. This new technology makes it harder to avoid worse applications of it, like deepfaked revenge porn and the like. Sure, that might get normalized enough to have less immediate stigma, but people will suffer in the meantime and it doesn't seem like that great of a trade.
