In other words, it's about creating a baseline so that future efforts will look no worse? Whether for a 2K restoration for Blu-Ray or some other purpose down the road, the 4K scan is always the starting point, not an ending point?
We can get very off track discussing generalities, as different films may need different solutions. There really is no such thing as a 2k "restoration" for Blu-ray. Possibly a digital clean-up. Problem is the 2k scan doesn't really get you anywhere. Neither fish nor foul. Might as well do clean-up in HD and save budget, if all that one wishes in the end is an HD master.
