With regards to this topic, you’re not even close to being knowledgeable.
Your advice is irrelevant in 2019.

Yes but is it a feature that justifies the cost of getting new equipment every time a new version comes out and will it improve sales?
Amateur needs to be shot clearly and with a reasonable colour balance. A decent camera and proper lighting will do far more than 4K provides. All RAW film data is reduced when edited or converted. What are the benefits to shooting 4K in today's market. Will the customer pay or buy more to justify the extra investment if he only wants a level that does not need 4K? Can the shooter produce a level that insists on the best quality and can he sell it?
We have seen 3D, VR and now 4k make no difference to sales, a billion surfers happy to get their porn for free on tubes, unless you're hoping for a new market to open up that requires only 4K to emerge.
