Theaters certainly could screw it up. Wouldn't be the first time. But maybe they wouldn't! I have no problem acknowledging and discussing potential downsides. But blanket statements that better reproduction will provide a worse experience don't seem to be supported by the facts, and it bugs me.
"Better reproduction" probably means very different things to different people.
Likely a lot would depend on good defaults and good training. If you were as skeptical about people and organizations as I am, you would assume it could on average worsen many movies. The original Murphy's Law and all that. :)
I'd accept "on average." The original comment up there didn't even say that. It just said, blanket statement, high resolution would be worse, and high framerates would be worse still.
