I don't know, really. Since the idea is not new, here is a quite critical opinion piece from 2015 I found, waiting for the next wave:

Oh interesting, my brother-in-law lives in the same town as him.
Will see if I can get any gossip.

I'm not sure how I feel about that. I get a little uncomfortable with fully restoring things, especially something like the Colosseum, which has been renowned as a ruin, for much longer than it was ever an active amphitheatre.
But in counter balance, I mostly disagree with everything the writer of the article publishes, so am in a quandary that I may agree with him :)
