Super 16mm is essentially the same deal (native 16:9 with a 4:3 center extraction when composing to support both aspect ratios).

I believe Ken is exactly right about this. If you watch any of the featurettes showing filming in progress and look at the video monitors, you can see that both 4:3 and 16:9 framings are being accounted for on the monitor screen.
