I disagree. There is probably a combination of static and dynamic convergence adjustments that can fix this. He just needs to know how to make those adjustments on his particular yoke. This might be some disc magnets, pots, etc. He just needs a good service manual, or help from someone who owns the same or a similar model.
Even if it is the case that it can't be fixed with compromising elsewhere, I would prefer it to be off by 1/64" at the top and bottom, rather than 1/32" just at the top.
