Citizen Kane’s 4K restoration didn’t use the negatives (since they don’t exist), so I think this is a non-issue. Always scan at 4K; there’s zero reason not to these days unless you’re on a very tight budget. You want the extra resolution to fully resolve the grain anyway (believe it or not, that’s an intended part of the image!). I even opt for 4K scans of super-8 for this reason.
