If only it were that simple - unfortunately "4K" also comes with higher bitrates (if you fall back to 1080P it will just max out at a much lower bitrate)

Most content that is not 10 bit will also be 4:2:0 - you are right that 4:4:4 is overkill but 4:2:0 does sorta suck.

It's really about the overall the package
