reproductions. The time-frame has as much to do with it as any other
aspect. Your part might be perfect in every detail, but it wasn't
manufactured in the same time period as the original. Plus in the

Mark-8, assmembled from era-parts 30 years after the builder's article
still an original Mark-8?
Exactly. Based on the era factor, I would say no.
