You haven’t hung around with film collectors 😃
Some are extremely against all things digital, they see it as an evil that killed cinema as they know it, and can’t stomach the thought of watching anything digital, including a near perfect scan of a print.
Others see scanning as jeopardising the already grey area of print ownership and fear it will bring the ire of the distributors and copyright holders down upon the entire 35mm film collecting community, and still others see a digital copy of a print as reducing the value of their rare 35mm print that they paid a lot of money and time to find and own.

There are many issues around it, the takeaway is that we have to treat very, very carefully when talking to print owners.
