I agree with that,
If an engine is only slightly stuck might as well unstick it and give it a try.
If it's severe it better be a special engine before you spend all the time and money necessary to unstick it and get it running and reliable again.

Here's an example of a throughly stuck engine

But one that could be made to run again... I decided not on my budget though..
