If I became Catholic I'd be an example of this 😆 It's fine, whatever, if I believed it were the best, I'd have as much right to be Catholic as anyone.

Religions are simultaneously (1) a faith, (2) an organizing principle of society, and (3) a hereditary social club. If you think about it primarily in terms of (3), you'll be more suspicious of converts, but if a religion takes itself seriously as (1) or (2), I think it's clear that it should accept honest converts.
