From what I know Miyazaki doesn't believe in computer generated graphics. Will he appreciate it?

The more recent ghibli movies use cgi, albeit while trying to stay true to their general esthetic. The next one is supposedly entirely in cg[0]. So hopefully he wouldn't hold anyone to a higher standard than himself? :)

I remember him saying somewhere that he didn't use CGI because he wouldn't have the time to master it any longer. He explicitly didn't say to oppose it for artistic reasons. But, yes, sorry, no reference.
You dont know well. Even Mononoke Hime back in 1997 had many sequences made in cg.
As far as I know, he can accept CG, but keep it on minimum.
Taken from the most recent documentary (by NHK?), Miyazaki does not use CG himself. He might attempt a comeback, i.e. doing feature-length anime. For the time being, Miyazaki is putting a finishing touch on a short anime (crawling caterpillar).
