That is what we are debating after-all. The clarity of the image does not concern me, the fact that it is traveling forever in space, does. Also, you are just speculating, you cannot say for certain we won't be able to decode the information into an image when the Hubble Deep field proves that we can.
According to your assumptions, the thousands of galaxies that we see should be scattered beyond the point of recognition, but they are not.
Take a look at the image.

Should the image be a scattered mess of unrecognizable photon's? How can I perceive the correct shapes of the galaxies from 13 billion years ago even though we see nothing but pitch black sky in that part of the sky today?
