> the step to 1080p was massive,

the step to 1080p I'd say that, for some, could have been seen even as a downgrade. It was possible to use 1600x1200 back in the late 90s and early 2000s, with CRTs. The concept of "high definition" was already known by PC users (gamers and professionals, that is)

4k is a nice upgrade, and I'd say that many professionals already were using it with proper monitors

8k eeh, we'll get there

We're talking about video editing, not screen resolutions.

The step to 1080p wasn't from 1600x1200, it was from PAL/NTSC (640x400 or 720x576). It was the biggest step by far.
