I am not in favor with two caveats:
1. The candidate had been a vital specie in a still existent but struggling ecosystem, and there is strong economic case to be made for restoring the ecosystem and doing so requires restoration of the lost keystone species.
2. There is very compelling reason to believe a extinct species by itself has potential for extraordinary economic value, such as certain plants may have important pharmaceutical uses,
