On older album, it kind of is. Problem is, they fuck it up all the time. Back in the day, they didn't exactly have the best equipment to transfer tapes to digital, plus some releases are from dub tapes.

You have a point
the stereo beatles remasters annoy me to high hell
Major advancements in audio technology, mono to stereo for example, justify a remaster.
If the original master is complete shit, and I mean it's got to be really bad, that also warrants a remaster.
Any other reason is probably just a money grab.

Is it because of the stereo mix itself being so hard panned left and right or the actual remastering? Because the former I can understand but the latter I find odd because the actual sound quality of the remasters are the best they've ever sounded on CD. One of the few times remastering has been an improvement rather than a detriment imo.
I do agree though that the mono Beatles remasters sound best. The stereo mixes are panned too hard left and right and especially on the early Beatles albums it's annoying. Revolver onwards sounds pretty good in stereo though.
All loudness war victims need a remaster.

The former, it's way too skewed.

Mono to srereo remastering is pretty cool imo....
