Scruffy and THX: Wouldn't 4:3 TVs benefit from the anamorphic video ever so slightly due to the fact that the letterboxing is handled via the DVD player and not just a lower resolution letterboxed version being spit out natively?

Aside from whether or not anamorphic matters in a 4:3 world, everything else is released anamorphic, and it's insulting to know that the extra resolution wouldn't be available with this release even if it did matter.

But seriously, I'd like to know more about the anamorphic stuff. Looked stuff up on the Digital Bits about it earlier today, and most of the technical stuff flew over my head.
