As with the others, I wouldn't modify the process, but if pressed
to do so, I also would not go the whole way. The film was not designed
to be pulled, and there is risk of crossover effects, so minimizing
the changes in processing would minimize the ill effects (which includes loss of brilliance to any frames that were underexposed in
the roll). Since there is little need to change the processing at all, given the latitude of negative color film, the least change in processing is best.
