Oh, no--in fact, all it really means is that when the time comes for a NBE! collection, that it will be cheaper for Marvel to do it, because they've already done a lot of the restoration work. But keep in mind that the vast majority of the NBE funnies have not been included in the Masterworks.
This is exactly how I look at it. Marvel is spreading out some of their restoration costs for what will probably be a "niche volume" for Masterworks (or Omni or whatever format).

And it is unlikely that all of the NBE stories will be Masterworked prior to the publication of the complete NBE hc.


Reading now:  White Tiger mini-series; X-Statix Omni
 
Awesome new acquisition:  X-Statix Omnibus (still waiting for my copy of Marvel Firsts 1960's to arrive, I'm sure that will qualify)
